out the multicast packets from the VAP which has at least one client joined the
multicast group. This is done because the wireless media is a broadcast media. It
does not need to be sent multiple times when there are more than one registered
clients.
When IGMP Snooping is turned on, multicast packets should be dropped at the VAP
exit if there is no client from the VAP who has joined the corresponding multicast
group.
The IGMP snooping forwarding table (port and multicast MAC address mapping table)
should support aging mechanism to age out the entry which has no multicast traffic
for a period of time (120 seconds in A2n).
The default setting of the IGMP Snooping is “Disabled”.
Multicast Traffic
:
Default setting is "
Enabled
". If set to "
Enabled
", the system allows
multicast traffic in all VAPs. If set to "
Disabled
", all multicast traffic in all VAPs will be
dropped.
Enable Optimization Mode
:
Set the Optimization mode to optimize the performance
depending on different deployment environment.
Optimization Mode
:
There are three modes, default, optimized for throughput and
optimized for capacity.
Data Rate
:
Default setting is “
best
”. The transmission data rate that appears on the
drop-down
A2n supports “
Multicast Traffic Data Rate Setting
” to transmit all multicast traffic of the
2.4G interface at the configured multicast data rate. The multicast data rate must be
set to any of the basic data rates. Default setting is 1 Mbps.
AirFi Mode
:
Enable AirFi mode to get enhanced throughput experience.
AirFi Level
:
There are four options for AirFi level: Level I, Level II, Level III and Custom.
AirFi level I is recommended.
