Configuring Station EDCA Parameters

Station Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) Parameters affect traffic flowing from the client
station to the access point.
Field
Queue
AIFS
(Inter-Frame Space)
Description
Queues are defined for different types of data transmitted from the client sta-
tion to the access point:
Data 0 (Voice)
Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data such as VoIP and
streaming media are automatically sent to this queue.
Data 1(Video)
Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is
automatically sent to this queue.
Data 2 (best effort)
Medium priority queue, medium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data
is sent to this queue.
Data 3 (Background)
Lowest priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum
throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for exam-
ple).
For more information, see "QoS Queues and Parameters to Coordinate Traffic
Flow" on page 144.
The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) specifies a wait time (in millisec-
onds) for data frames.
For more information, see "EDCF Control of Data Frames and Arbitration Inter-
frame Spaces" on page 145.
