The following table explains each parameter.
Parameter
Explanation
RFC1042/DIX
Determines how the access point will handle the conversion of
Conversion
RFC1042/DIX frames that are received on its 802.11b ports.
Enabled Causes frames received on an 802.11b port with a protocol
type equal to a value in the "RFC1042 types to pass through" list to be
forwarded without conversion. If the frame has a protocol types that is
not found in the list, it will be converted to DIX format before it is
forwarded.
Disabled Causes frames received on an 802.11b port to be forwarded
without conversion; that is, when a SNAP frame is received from an
802.11b radio with an OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) equal
to 000000, it will be forwarded without conversion.
S-UHF Rfp
Specifies the largest data packet that can be transmitted without
Threshold
reserving air time. Air time is normally reserved to help prevent
collisions with other transmitters; however, when the amount of data is
small enough, sending the data may be more effective than creating the
reservation.
S-UHF Frag Size
Specifies the largest data packet that can be transmitted without
fragmentation. On certain radios, fragmentation does not occur unless
the radio detects interference. Larger packet sizes can improve
throughput on a reliable connection, while smaller packet sizes can
improve throughput on a poor connection.
902 MHz Frag Size
Specifies the largest data packet that can be transmitted without
fragmentation. On certain radios, fragmentation does not occur unless
the radio detects interference. Larger packet sizes can improve
throughput on a reliable connection, while smaller packet sizes can
improve throughput on a poor connection.
S-UHF/902 MHz
Specifies the amount of time that a wireless end device stays awake
Awake Time
when radios are inactive. A sleeping device is less responsive to radio
activity; however, the longer a device is kept fully awake, the larger the
drain on the battery. You should set a device to stay awake long enough
to receive an expected reply to a transmission and short enough to
reduce power consumption. The awake time can be set to a number
from 0 to 250 tenths of a second.
RFC1042 Types to
If the RFC1042/DIX Conversion field is Enabled, this parameter
Pass Through
specifies values for protocol types that are to be passed without
conversion. The list includes the Apple Talk protocol type, value 80F3.
Values entered in this parameter represent the protocol types of frames
that will be passed without conversion to DIX format.
