ProSAFE Dual-Band Wireless AC Access Point WAC720 WAC730 Setting Description AMPDU Select the Enable radio button to allow the aggregation of several MAC frames into a single large frame to achieve higher throughput. Enabling the aggregated MAC protocol data unit (A-MPDU) could lead to better network performance. By default, the Enable radio button is selected. RIFS Transmission Select the Enable radio button to allow transmission of successive frames at different transmit powers. Enabling reduced interframe space (RIFS) could lead to better network performance. By default, the Disable radio button is selected. DTIM Interval (1-255) Enter the delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) interval, also referred to as the data beacon rate, which indicates the beacon delivery traffic indication message period in multiples of beacon intervals. This value needs to be between 1 and 255. The default setting is 3. Antenna Select one of the following radio buttons to specify the antenna: • Internal. Enables the internal antenna. This is the default setting. • External. Enables an optional external antenna or antennas. 802.11d Note: This setting does not apply to the 802.11a/a-na-ac modes. Select this check box to enable support for additional regulatory domains that are not in the current standard; support includes the addition of a country information element to beacons, probe requests, and probe responses. This check box is selected by default. Wireless Client Security Separation From the menu, select one of the following options: • Enable. Communication between wireless clients that are associated to different virtual access points (VAPs) is blocked. • Disable. Communication between wireless clients that are associated to different VAPs is allowed. This is the default setting. Max. Wireless Clients Enter the maximum number of wireless clients that can simultaneously connect to the wireless access point at one time. The default setting is 128 clients. Frame Burst Frame-burst support boosts the downstream throughput. It is disabled by default. Fixed Multicast Rate Select the multicast traffic transmission rate you want the AP to support. The default value is Auto. For 2.4GHz radio, Auto value is 1 Mbps. For 5GHz radio, Auto value is 6 Mbps. Broadcast/Multicast Rate Enabling multicast and broadcast rate limiting may improve overall network performance by limiting the number of packets transmitted across the network. By default the Multicast/Broadcast Rate Limiting option is disabled. The default and maximum rate limit setting is 50 packets per second. The default and maximum rate limit burst setting is 75 packets per second. 3. Click Apply to save your settings. Advanced Configuration 78
