Chapter 34 Object Table 266 Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > Add/Edit SSID Profile (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION QoS Select a Quality of Service (QoS) access category to associate with this SSID. Access categories minimize the delay of data packets across a wireless network. Certain categories, such as video or voice, are given a higher priority due to the time sensitive nature of their data packets. QoS access categories are as follows: disable: Turns off QoS for this SSID. All data packets are treated equally and not tagged with access categories. WMM: Enables automatic tagging of data packets. The Zyxel Device assigns access categories to the SSID by examining data as it passes through it and making a best guess effort. If something looks like video traffic, for instance, it is tagged as such. WMM_VOICE: All wireless traffic to the SSID is tagged as voice data. This is recommended if an SSID is used for activities like placing and receiving VoIP phone calls. WMM_VIDEO: All wireless traffic to the SSID is tagged as video data. This is recommended for activities like video conferencing. WMM_BEST_EFFORT: All wireless traffic to the SSID is tagged as "best effort," meaning the data travels the best route it can without displacing higher priority traffic. This is good for activities that do not require the best bandwidth throughput, such as surfing the Internet. Rate Limiting (Per Station Traffic Rate) Downlink: Uplink: Band Select: WMM_BACKGROUND: All wireless traffic to the SSID is tagged as low priority or "background traffic", meaning all other access categories take precedence over this one. If traffic from an SSID does not have strict throughput requirements, then this access category is recommended. For example, an SSID that only has network printers connected to it. Define the maximum incoming and outgoing transmission data rate per wireless station Define the maximum incoming transmission data rate (either in Mbps or Kbps) on a per-station basis. Define the maximum outgoing transmission data rate (either in Mbps or Kbps) on a per-station basis. To improve network performance and avoid interference in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, you can enable this feature to use the 5 GHz band first. You should set 2.4GHz and 5 GHz radio profiles to use the same SSID and security settings. Select standard to have the AP try to connect the wireless clients to the same SSID using the 5 GHZ band. Connections to an SSID using the 2.4GHz band are still allowed. Otherwise, select disable to turn off this feature. Stop Threshold This field is not available when you disable Band Select. Select this option and set the threshold number of the connected wireless clients at which the Zyxel Device disables the band select feature. Balance Ratio This field is not available when you disable Band Select. Select this option and set a ratio of the wireless clients using the 5 GHz band to the wireless clients using the 2.4 GHz band. Forwarding Mode Select a forwarding mode (Tunnel or Local bridge) for traffic from this SSID. VLAN ID If you selected Local Bridge forwarding mode, enter the VLAN ID that will be used to tag all traffic originating from this SSID if the VLAN is different from the native VLAN. All the wireless station's traffic goes through the associated AP's gateway. VLAN Interface If you selected the Tunnel forwarding mode, select a VLAN interface. All the wireless station's traffic is forwarded to the Zyxel Device first. ZyWALL ATP Series User's Guide 672
