Beacon Interval
:
Beacon Interval:
The device broadcasts beacon frames regularly to
announce its existence. The beacon Interval specifies how often beacon frames are
transmitted in time unit of milliseconds. The default value is
100
, and a valid value
should be between 1 and 65,535.
RTS Threshold:
RTS/CTS frames are used to gain control of the medium for
transmission. Any unicast (data or control) frames larger than specified RTS threshold
must be transmitted following the RTS/CTS handshake exchange mechanism. The
RTS threshold should have a value between 256-2347 bytes, with a default of
2347
. It
is recommended that this value does not deviate from the default too much.
Fragmentation:
When the size of a unicast frame exceeds the fragmentation
threshold, it will be fragmented before the transmission. It should have a value of
256-2346 bytes, with a default of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you
should slightly decrease the Fragmentation Threshold.
DTIM Interval:
The AIRMAX5N buffers packets for stations that operate in the
power-saving mode. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) informs such
power-conserving stations that there are packets waiting to be received by them. The
DTIM interval specifies how often the beacon frame should contain DTIMs. It should
have a value between 1 to 255, with a default value of 3.
TX Burst:
AirMax5N will try to send a serial of packages with single ACK reply from
the clients. Enable this function to apply it.
4.2.12 Access Control (ACL)
Operation Mode -> Setup -> Access Control
The AIRMAX5N allows you to define a list of MAC addresses that are allowed or denied to
access the wireless network. This function is available only for Access Point and AP Router
modes.
