Section 3: Configuring the Access Point
LAPAC1750PRO Access Point Software User Manual
Legacy Rate
Sets
Check the transmission rate sets you want the AP to
support and the basic rate sets you want the AP to
advertise:
•
Rates are expressed in megabits per second
•
Supported Rate Sets indicate rates that the AP
supports You can check multiple rates (click a
check box to select or deselect a rate) The AP will
automatically choose the most efficient rate based
on factors like error rates and distance of client
stations from the AP
•
Basic Rate Sets indicate rates that the AP will
advertise to the network for the purposes of setting
up communication with other APs and client stations
on the network It is generally more efficient to have
an AP broadcast a subset of its supported rate sets
Broadcast/
Multicast Rate
Limiting
Enabling multicast and broadcast rate limiting can
improve overall network performance by limiting the
number of packets transmitted across the network
By default the Multicast/Broadcast Rate Limiting option
is disabled Until you enable Multicast/Broadcast Rate
Limiting, the following fields will be disabled
− Rate Limit
Enter the rate limit you want to set for multicast and
broadcast traffic The limit should be greater than 1,
but less than 50 packets per second Any traffic that
falls below this rate limit will always conform and be
transmitted to the appropriate destination
The default and maximum rate limit setting is 50 packets
per second
− Rate Limit
Burst
Setting a rate limit burst determines how far above the
rate limit bursts can go before all traffic exceeds the rate
limit This burst limit allows intermittent bursts of traffic
on a network above the set rate limit
The default and maximum rate limit burst setting is 75
packets per second
TSPEC Mode
Regulates the overall TSPEC mode on the AP
•
On — The AP handles TSPEC requests according to
the TSPEC settings you configure on the Radio page
Use this setting if the AP handles traffic from QoS-
capable devices, such as a Wi-Fi-certified phone
•
Off — The AP ignores TSPEC requests from client
stations Use this setting if you do not want to use
TSPEC to give QoS-capable devices priority for time-
sensitive traffic
TSPEC Violation
Interval
•
Specify the time interval (in seconds) for the AP to
report (through the system log and SNMP traps)
associated clients that do not adhere to mandatory
admission control procedures
TSPEC Voice
ACM Mode
Regulates mandatory admission control (ACM) for the
voice access category The options are:
•
On — A station is required to send a TSPEC request
for bandwidth to the AP before sending or receiving
a voice traffic stream The AP responds with the
result of the request, which includes the allotted
medium time if the TSPEC was admitted
•
Off — A station can send and receive voice priority
traffic without requiring an admitted TSPEC; the AP
ignores voice TSPEC requests from client stations
TSPEC Voice
ACM Limit
Specify an upper limit on the amount of traffic the AP
attempts to transmit on the wireless medium using a
voice admission control to gain access
TSPEC Video
ACM Mode
Regulates mandatory admission control for the video
access category The options are:
•
On — A station is required to send a TSPEC request
for bandwidth to the AP before sending or receiving
a video traffic stream The AP responds with the
result of the request, which includes the allotted
medium time if the TSPEC was admitted
•
Off — A station can send and receive video priority
traffic without requiring an admitted TSPEC; the AP
ignores video TSPEC requests from client stations
