ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP360 3. Specify the settings as explained in the following table: Table 25. EDCA Settings Field Description AP EDCA parameters AIFS Enter the Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) interval that specifies the wait time (in milliseconds) between data frames. A higher AIFS value means a higher priority for a queue. Valid values for AIFS are 0 through 8. The default values are: Data 0: 3; Data 1: 7; Data 2: 1; Data 3: 1. cwMin Enter the Minimum Contention Window (cwMin) value that specifies the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMin needs to be lower than the value for cwMax. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023. The default values are: Data 0: 15; Data 1: 15; Data 2: 7; Data 3: 3. cwMax Enter the Maximum Contention Window (cwMax) value that specifies the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMax needs to be higher than the value for cwMin. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023. The default values are: Data 0: 63; Data 1: 1023; Data 2: 15; Data 3: 7. Max. Burst Enter the maximum burst value that specifies the maximum burst length (in microseconds) allowed for packet bursts on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple frames transmitted without header information. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the queue. Valid values for maximum burst length are all multiples of 32 between 0 and 8192, inclusive of 0 and 8192. The default values are: Data 0: 0; Data 1: 0; Data 2: 3008; Data 3: 1504. Station EDCA parameters AIFS Enter the Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) interval that specifies the wait time (in milliseconds) between data frames. A higher AIFS value means a higher priority for a queue. Valid values for AIFS are 0 through 8. The default values are: Data 0: 3; Data 1: 7; Data 2: 2; Data 3: 2. cwMin Enter the Minimum Contention Window (cwMin) value that specifies the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMin needs to be lower than the value for cwMax. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023. The default values are: Data 0: 15; Data 1: 15; Data 2: 7; Data 3: 3. Advanced Configuration 88

AP EDCA parameters
AIFS
Enter the Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) interval that specifies the wait time (in
milliseconds) between data frames. A higher AIFS value means a higher priority for a
queue. Valid values for AIFS are 0 through 8.
The default values are: Data 0: 3; Data 1: 7; Data 2: 1; Data 3: 1.
cwMin
Enter the Minimum Contention Window (cwMin) value that specifies the upper limit (in
milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined.

lower than the value for cwMax. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or
