Advanced Wireless Setup
Select a SSID
Choose the name of the wireless network that you want
to configure. The default data SSID is cisco-data. The
default voice SSID is cisco-voice.
RTS Threshold
The SRP sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a
receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data
frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station
responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to
acknowledge the right to begin transmission. If you
encounter inconsistent data flow, you can adjust this
threshold. Only minor reduction of the default value,
2347, is recommended. If a network packet is smaller
than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS
mechanism will not be enabled. The RTS Threshold
value should remain at its default value of 2347.
