Supports broadcast download protocols for any MU,
typically Point-of-Sale terminals, requiring
the expedited download of a new operating
image over the network instead of using a local
nonvolatile drive.
All multicast downstream data packets that match
the top 32 bits of the multicast mask are forwarded
immediately instead of being queued for
transmission at the next DTIM interval.
Supports broadcast, or party-line, voice
communications. All multicast downstream data
packets that match the top 32 bits of the multicast
mask are forwarded immediately instead of being
queued for transmission at the next DTIM interval.
The time between beacons in Kilo-microseconds.
The default is . Avoid changing this parameter as
100
it can adversely affect performance.
Allows the AP to respond to any station sending
probe packets with the industry-standard broadcast
ESS. If Enabled, this feature allows industry-standard
devices interoperability. The AP probe response
includes the ESS and information about the network.
By default, this feature is Enabled and the AP
responds only to stations that know the ESSID. This
helps preserve network security. MUs require using
Broadcast ESS to use this function.
Allows industry-standard device interoperability by
specifying the time the AP allows for MU inactivity.
A Spectrum24 AP recognizes MU activity through
data packet transmission and reception, and
through scanning. Spectrum24 MUs conduct active
scanning. Other industry-standard MUs might
conduct passive scans and a Spectrum24 AP can
classify them as inactive.
