78
Beacon Interval The amount of time between beacon transmissions. Each beacon
transmission identifies the presence of an access point. By
default, radio NICs passively scan all RF channels and listen for
beacons coming from access points to find a suitable access point.
Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs the
beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon
(and learn whether there are buffered frames at the access point).
The entered value is represented in ms. Default is 100.
Acceptable entry range is 1 to 0xffff (65535)
