Description
Enter the Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) interval that
specifies the wait time (in milliseconds) between data frames. A
higher AIFS value means a higher priority for a queue. Valid values for
AIFS are 0 through 8.
The default values are: Data 0: 3; Data 1: 7; Data 2: 1; Data 3: 1.
Enter the Minimum Contention Window (cwMin) value that specifies
the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial
random back-off wait time is determined. Decreasing this value
increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMin must be lower
than the value for cwMax. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127,
255, 511, or 1023.
The default values are: Data 0: 15; Data 1: 15; Data 2: 7; Data 3: 3.
Enter the Maximum Contention Window (cwMax) value that specifies
the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random
back-off value. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the
queue. The value for cwMax must be higher than the value for cwMin.
Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023.
The default values are: Data 0: 63; Data 1: 1023; Data 2: 15;
Data 3: 7.
Enter the maximum burst value that specifies the maximum burst
length (in microseconds) allowed for packet bursts on the wireless
network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple frames transmitted
without header information. Decreasing this value increases the
priority of the queue. Valid values for maximum burst length are all
multiples of 32 between 0 and 8192, inclusive of 0 and 8192.
The default values are: Data 0: 0; Data 1: 0; Data 2: 3008;
Data 3: 1504.
Enter the Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) interval that
specifies the wait time (in milliseconds) between data frames. A
higher AIFS value means a higher priority for a queue. Valid values for
AIFS are 0 through 8.
The default values are: Data 0: 3; Data 1: 7; Data 2: 2; Data 3: 2.
Enter the Minimum Contention Window (cwMin) value that specifies
the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial
random back-off wait time is determined. Decreasing this value
increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMin must be lower
than the value for cwMax. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127,
255, 511, or 1023.
The default values are: Data 0: 15; Data 1: 15; Data 2: 7; Data 3: 3.
