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, 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 Quality of Service Settings on page 111.  To configure basic wireless QoS: 1.
