Configure Advanced QoS Settings

For most networks, the default Quality of Service (QoS) queue settings work well. For
information about how to configure basic QoS, see
Service on page 52.
You can specify the settings on multiple queues for increased throughput and better
performance of differentiated wireless traffic such as Voice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of
audio, video, and streaming media, as well as traditional IP data.
The advanced QoS options on the wireless access point are as follows:
• AP EDCA parameters. Specify the access point (AP) Enhanced Distributed Channel
Access (EDCA) settings for different types of data transmitted from the wireless access
point to wireless clients.
• Station EDCA parameters. Specify the station EDCA parameters for different types of
data transmitted from the wireless clients to the wireless access point. If WMM is
disabled, you cannot configure the Station EDCA parameters. (For information about how
to enable WMM, see
When you configure the EDCA settings, the wireless access point can leverage existing
information in the IP packet header that is related to the Type of Service (ToS). The wireless
access point examines the ToS field in the headers of all packets that it processes. Based on
the value in a packet's ToS field, the wireless access point prioritizes the packet for
transmission by assigning it to one of the queues. A different type of data is associated with
each queue. You can configure how the wireless access point treats each queue.
Description
Select one of the following radio buttons to specify the antenna:
• Internal. Enables the internal antenna. This is the default setting.
• External. Enables an optional external antenna.
Select this check box to enable support for additional regulatory
domains that are not in the current standard; support includes the
addition of a country information element to beacons, probe requests,
and probe responses. This check box is selected by default.
From the drop-down list, select one of the following options:
• Enable. Communication between wireless clients that are
associated to different virtual access points (VAPs) is blocked.
• Disable. Communication between wireless clients that are
associated to different VAPs is allowed. This is the default setting.
Enter the maximum number of wireless clients that can
simultaneously connect to the wireless access point at one time. The
default setting is 64 clients.
