WNHDE111 5GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridge User Manual This table below describes the WISH options. Table 6-1. WISH Options Item Description Enable WISH Enables WISH prioritization. Priority Classifiers Applies WISH prioritization to different categories of traffic. HTTP Allows the access point to recognize HTTP transfers for many common audio and video streams and prioritize them above other traffic. Such streams are frequently used by digital media players. Windows Media Center Enables the access point to recognize certain audio and video streams generated by a Windows Media Center PC and to prioritize these above other traffic. Such streams are used by systems known as Windows Media Extenders, such as the Xbox 360. Automatic When enabled, this option causes the access point to automatically attempt to prioritize traffic streams that it doesn't otherwise recognize, based on the behavior that the streams exhibit. This acts to deprioritize streams that exhibit bulk transfer characteristics, such as file transfers, while leaving interactive traffic, such as gaming or VoIP, running at a normal priority. Add Wish Rule A WISH Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that flow. For most applications, the priority classifiers ensure the right priorities and specific WISH Rules are not required. WISH supports overlaps between rules. If more than one rule matches for a specific message flow, the rule with the highest priority will be used. Enable Specifies whether the entry will be active or inactive. Name Create a name for the rule that is meaningful to you. Priority Choose one for each rule: Background; Best Effort; Video; and Voice Protocol Pick from the list (Any; TCPIP; UDP; Both; ICMP; Other) or specify another Host 1 & 2 IP The rule applies to a flow of messages between computers that have IP Ranges address within the ranges set here.
