Configure Basic Wireless Quality of Service Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, wireless clients also need to support WMM. By enabling WMM, you allow Quality of Service (QoS) control for upstream traffic flowing from a wireless station to the wireless access point and for downstream traffic flowing from the wireless access point to a wireless station. 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 application use this queue. • Background. Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications, such as FTP, that are not time-sensitive but require high throughput can use this queue. The WMM Powersave feature saves power for battery-powered equipment by increasing the efficiency and flexibility of data transmission. Note: For information about how to configure advanced wireless QoS, that is, to configure specific Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) settings, see Configure Advanced QoS Settings on page 86.

Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to
have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such
as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly,
wireless clients also need to support WMM.
By enabling WMM, you allow Quality of Service (QoS) control for upstream traffic flowing
from a wireless station to the wireless access point and for downstream traffic flowing from
the wireless access point to a wireless station.
