3.7 QoS The EAP Controller software allows you to configure the quality of service (QoS) on the EAP device for optimal throughput and performance when handling differentiated wireless traffic, such as Voice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of audio, video, streaming media, and traditional IP data. To configure QoS on the EAP device, you should set parameters on the transmission queues for different types of wireless traffic and specify minimum and maximum wait times (through contention windows) for transmission. In normal use, we recommend you keep the default values for the EAP devices and station EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access). Follow the steps below to configure QoS. 1. Go to Wireless Control > QoS. 2. Enable or disable the following features. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) By default enabled. With WMM enabled, the EAP devices have the QoS function to guarantee the high priority of the transmission of audio and video packets. If 802.11n only mode is selected in 2.4GHz (or 802.11n only, 802.11ac only, or 802.11 n/ac mixed mode in 5GHz), the WMM should be enabled. If WMM is disabled, the 802.11n only mode cannot be selected in 2.4GHz (or 802.11n only, 802.11ac only, or 802.11 n/ac mixed mode in 5GHz). NoAcknowledgement By default disabled. You can enable this function to specify that the EAP devices should not acknowledge frames with QosNoAck. NoAcknowledgement is recommended if VoIP phones access the network through the EAP device. Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery By default enabled. As a power management method, it can greatly improve the energy-saving capacity of clients. 48

QoS
The EAP Controller software allows you to configure the quality of service (QoS) on the
EAP device for optimal throughput and performance when handling differentiated
wireless traffic, such as Voice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of audio, video, streaming media,
and traditional IP data.
To configure QoS on the EAP device, you should set parameters on the transmission
queues for different types of wireless traffic and specify minimum and maximum wait
times (through contention windows) for transmission. In normal use, we recommend
you keep the default values for the EAP devices and station EDCA (Enhanced Distributed
Channel Access).
Follow the steps below to configure QoS.
1. Go to
Wireless Control > QoS
.
2. Enable or disable the following features.
Wi-Fi Multimedia
(WMM)
By default enabled. With WMM enabled, the EAP devices have the QoS function
to guarantee the high priority of the transmission of audio and video packets.
If 802.11n only mode is selected in 2.4GHz (or 802.11n only, 802.11ac only, or
802.11 n/ac mixed mode in 5GHz), the WMM should be enabled. If WMM is
disabled, the 802.11n only mode cannot be selected in 2.4GHz (or 802.11n only,
802.11ac only, or 802.11 n/ac mixed mode in 5GHz).
NoAcknowledgement
By default disabled. You can enable this function to specify that the EAP devices
should not acknowledge frames with QosNoAck. NoAcknowledgement is
recommended if VoIP phones access the network through the EAP device.
Unscheduled
Automatic Power Save
Delivery
By default enabled. As a power management method, it can greatly improve the
energy-saving capacity of clients.
