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.
Accelerated Multicast
Select this option to disable all Multicast Streaming on the WLAN. This
option is enabled by default.
Select this option to allow an administrator to have multicast packets that
are being bridged converted to unicast to provide better overall airtime
utilization and performance. The administrator can either have the system
automatically detect multicast streams and convert all detected multicast
streams to unicast, or specify which multicast streams are converted to
unicast. When the stream is converted and being queued up for
transmission, there are a number of classification mechanisms that can be
applied to the stream, and the administrator can select what type of
classification they would want.
Select this option and specify a list of multicast addresses and
classifications. Packets are accelerated when the destination addresses
matches.
