Field
Description
The default value is
2
.
RTS Threshold
Here, you select how the RTS/CTS mechanism is to be
switched on/off.
If you choose
User Defined
, in the input field you can specify
the data packet length threshold in bytes (1..2346) as of which
the RTS/CTS mechanism is to be used. This makes sense if
several clients that are not in each other's wireless range are
run in one access point. The mechanism can also be switched
on/off independently of the data packet length by selecting the
value
Always on
or
Always off
(default value).
Short Retry Limit
Enter the maximum number of attempts to send a frame of
length less than or equal to the value defined in RTS
Threshold. After this many failed attempts, the packet is dis-
carded.
Possible values are
1
to
255
.
The default value is
7
.
Long Retry Limit
Enter the maximum number of attempts to send a data packet
of length less than or equal to the value defined in RTS
Threshold. After this many failed attempts, the packet is dis-
carded.
Possible values are
1
to
255
.
The default value is
4
.
Fragmentation
Threshold
Enter the maximum size as of which the data packets are to be
fragmented (i.e. split into smaller units). A low value is recom-
mended for this field in areas with poor reception and in the
event of radio interference.
Possible values are
256
to
2346
.
The default value is
2346
bytes.
ED Threshold
Define the Energy Detection threshold for CCA (Clear Channel
Assessment).
Possible values are
-2147483648
to
2147483647
.
