Option Description
DTIM Interval
Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM), also known as Beacon Rate. The entry
range is a value between 1 and 65535. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of
the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the AP
has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the
next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value.
AP Clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast
messages. The default is 1.
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)

the total associated clients of the 4 SSIDs combined.
