ProSAFE Single Band 802.11n Wireless Access Point WN203 By enabling WMM, you allow Quality of Service (QoS) control for upstream traffic flowing from a wireless client to the wireless access point and for downstream traffic flowing from the wireless access point to a wireless client. WMM defines the following four queues in decreasing order of priority: • Voice. The highest priority queue with minimum delay, which makes it ideal for applications like VoIP and streaming media. • Video. The second highest priority queue with low delay is given to this queue. Video applications are routed to this queue. • Best Effort. The medium priority queue with medium delay is given to this queue. Most standard IP applications use this queue. • Background. Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications that are not time-sensitive but require high throughput, such as FTP, can use this queue. The WMM Powersave feature saves power for battery-powered equipment by increasing the efficiency and flexibility of data transmission. For information about how to configure advanced wireless QoS, that is, to configure specific Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) settings, see Configure Advanced Quality of Service Settings on page 73.  To configure basic wireless QoS: 1. Select Configuration > Wireless > Basic > QoS Settings. The basic QoS Settings screen displays: 2. Enable or disable the WMM features: • Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM).

By enabling WMM, you allow Quality of Service (QoS) control for upstream traffic flowing
from a wireless client to the wireless access point and for downstream traffic flowing from the
wireless access point to a wireless client.
WMM defines the following four queues in decreasing order of priority:
•
Voice
. The highest priority queue with minimum delay, which makes it ideal for
applications like VoIP and streaming media.
•
Video
. The second highest priority queue with low delay is given to this queue. Video
applications are routed to this queue.
•
Best Effort
. The medium priority queue with medium delay is given to this queue. Most
standard IP applications use this queue.
•
Background
. Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications that are not
time-sensitive but require high throughput, such as FTP, can use this queue.
The WMM Powersave feature saves power for battery-powered equipment by increasing the
efficiency and flexibility of data transmission.
