Beacon Interval
DTIM Period
Multicast to Unicast
Configures interval between beacon transmissions/broadcasts.
The Beacon signals help to keep the network synchronized and provide
main information about the network such as SSID, Timestamp...
•
Using High Beacon Interval: AP will be sending beacon
broadcast less frequently. This will help to get better throughput,
thus better speed/performance. It also helps to save Wi-Fi clients
energy consumption.
•
Using Low Beacon Interval: AP will be sending beacon
broadcast more frequently. This can help in environments with
weak signal areas; sending more frequently beacons will increase
chances to be received by Wi-Fi clients with weak signal.
Notes:
1. When AP enables several SSIDs with different interval values,
the max value will take effect.
2. When AP enables less than 3 SSIDs, the interval value which
will be effective are the values from 40 to 500.
3. When AP enables more than 2 but less than 9 SSIDs, the
interval value which will be effective are the values from 100 to
500.
4. When AP enables more than 8 SSIDs, the interval value which
will be effective are the values from 200 to 500.
5. Mesh feature will take up a share when it is enabled.
Default value is 100ms. Valid range: 40 – 500 ms.
Configures the frequency of DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message)
transmission per each beacon broadcast. Clients will check the AP for
buffered data at every configured DTIM Period. You may set a high value
for power saving consideration.
Default value is 1, meaning that AP will have DTIM broadcast every
beacon. If set to 10, AP will have DTIM broadcast every 10 beacons.
Valid range: 1 – 10.
Once selected, AP will convert multicast streams into unicast streams over
the wireless link. Which helps to enhance the quality and reliability of
video/audio stream and preserve the bandwidth available to the non-
video/audio clients.
