Priority Description
AC_BK Background. Low
High throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not
time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example).
AC_BE Best Effort Medium Medium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue
AC_VI Video High Minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue
AC_VO Voice High
Time-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this
queue
Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless
traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each
queue based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum
transmission delay for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort
parameters for traditional IP data.
As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for
transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are
less time-sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.

Aifsn : The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data
frames
9
CWmin : Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm that determines the
initial random backoff wait time ("window") for retry of a transmission. The value specified here in the
Minimum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random
backoff wait time is determined.
9
CWmax : Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window
is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random backoff value. This doubling continues
until either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the
Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number of retries
allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1024. The
