size
These are used to enable RTS/CTS protection on aggregate frames, and control the size of the frames receiving
RTS/CTS protection. These are typically used as a test commands to set a specific condition in the driver. The
AggrProt command is used to enable (1) or disable (0) this function. Default is disabled. The AggrProtDur
setting indicates the amount of time to add to the duration of the CTS period to allow for additional packet
bursts before a new RTS/CTS is required. Default is 8192 microseconds. The AggrProtMax command is used
to indicate the largest aggregate size to receive RTS/CTS protection. The default is 8192 bytes. These
commands have associated get commands.

AMPDU
1|0
This is used to enable/disable transmit AMPDU aggregation for the entire interface. Receiving of aggregate
frames will still be performed, but no aggregate frames will be transmitted if this is disabled. This has a
corresponding get command, and the default value is 1 (enabled).

AMPDUFrames
numFrames
This command will set the maximum number of subframes to place into an AMPDU aggregate frame. Frames
are added to an aggregate until either a) the transmit duration is exceeded, b) the number of subframes is
exceeded, c) the maximum number of bytes is exceeded, or d) the corresponding queue is empty. The subframe
that causes the excess conditions will not be included in the aggregate frame, but will be queued up to be
transmitted with the next aggregate frame.
The default value is 32. This command has a corresponding get command.

Byte Limit
This parameter will limit the number of bytes included in an AMPDU aggregate frame. Frames are added to an
aggregate until either a) the transmit duration is exceeded, b) the number of subframes is exceeded, c) the
maximum number of bytes is exceeded, or d) the corresponding queue is empty. The subframe that causes the
excess conditions will not be included in the aggregate frame, but will be queued up to be transmitted with the
next aggregate frame.
The default value of this parameter is 50000. This command has a corresponding get command.
