configure rf-profile <name> dtim-interval <value>
Description
Specifies the interval of the delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) in number of beacons.
Syntax Description
Default
2
Usage Guidelines
A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next listening window to broadcast and
multicast messages. When the wireless port has buffered broadcast or multicast messages, it sends the
next DTIM with a DTIM interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast
and multicast messages.
Clients achieve greater power savings with larger DTM intervals. However, a larger DTM interval will
increase the delay before multicast frames are delivered to all stations.
Examples
The following command sets the DTIM interval to every 5 beacons:
configure rf-profile rfprof1 dtim-interval 5
