WLAN Settings from the CLI
The minimum data rate for BSS is done through CLI by the following commands. This reduces
range from an AP slightly but improves throughput.
In addition, pmk caching must be disabled to enable the OKC algorithm expected for fast
roaming.
Finally, conversion of multicast and broadcast to unicast for AP’s that have less than 6 clients
should be disabled for the best handset interoperability.
ruckus> enable
ruckus# config
ruckus(config)# wlan <wlan name>
(The WLAN service <wlan name> has been loaded. To save the WLAN service,
type 'end' or 'exit'.)
ruckus(config-wlan)# bss-minrate 5.5
ruckus(config-wlan)# no pmk-cache-for-reconnect
ruckus(config-wlan)# no qos directed-multicast
ruckus(config-wlan)# qos directed-threshold 0
ruckus(config-wlan)# end
(message saying values were saved)
The DTIM must be set to 2 for good PTT (“walkie-talkie”) performance. These commands are
executed through a special debug interface which send
s the setting out to all AP’s currently
attached.
AdminTip: Repeat when new APs added
These commands must be re-issued when a new AP is powered up and added to
the network.
