Beacon Interval; Rts Threshold; Dot11 Mode; Radio Active - HP MSM7XX Reference Manual

CLI commands
This is a global setting that is useful when creating wireless links to remote sites. However, it also
applies to all wireless connection made with the radio, not just for wireless links. Therefore, if you
are also using the radio to serve local wireless client stations, adjusting this setting may lower the
performance for clients with marginal signal strength or when interference is present.
(Essentially, it means that if a frame needs to be retransmitted it will take longer before the actual
retransmit takes place.)

beacon interval

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl
beacon interval <value>
Sets the beacon interval.
Parameters
< value>

rts threshold

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl
rts threshold <value>
Sets the RTS threshold.
no rts threshold
Deletes the RTS threshold value.
Parameters
< value>
Description
Use this parameter to control collisions on the link that can reduce throughput. If the Status
Wireless page on the management tool shows increasing values for Tx multiple retry frames or Tx
single retry frames, you should adjust this value until the errors clear up. Start with a value of 1024
and then decrease to 512 until errors are reduced or eliminated.
Using a small value for RTS threshold can affect throughput.
If a packet is larger than the threshold, the service controller will hold it and issue a request to
send (RTS) message to the client station. Only when the client station replies with a clear to send
(CTS) message will the service controller send the packet. Packets smaller than the threshold are
transmitted without this handshake.

dot11 mode

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl
dot11 mode (monitor | ap+wds | ap-only | wds-only | sensor)
Sets the operating mode for the radio.

radio active

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl
radio active
Enables the radio.
2-152
Beacon interval value in the range 20 and 500 time units (TU) (1 TU =
1024us).
Threshold value in the range 128 and 1540.
