6. Configure the following parameters in respect to the intended Multicast Mask :
7. Set the following Accelerated Multicast settings:
Multicast Mask Primary Configure the primary multicast mask for each listed QoS policy. Normally all multicast
and broadcast packets are buffered until the periodic DTIM interval (indicated in the
802.11 beacon frame), when clients in power save mode wake to check for frames.
However, for certain applications and traffic types, an administrator may want the frames
transmitted immediately, without waiting for the DTIM interval. By configuring a primary
and secondary multicast mask, an administrator can indicate which frames are
transmitted immediately. Setting masks is optional and only needed if there are traffic
types requiring special handling.
Multicast Mask
Secondary Set a secondary multicast mask for the WLAN QoS policy. Normally all multicast and
broadcast packets are buffered until the periodic DTIM interval (indicated in the 802.11
beacon frame), when clients in power save mode wake to check for frames. However, for
certain applications and traffic types, an administrator may want the frames transmitted
immediately, without waiting for the DTIM interval. By configuring a primary and
secondary multicast mask, an administrator can indicate which frames are transmitted
immediately. Setting masks is optional and only needed if there are traffic types requiring
special handling.
