Set the number of voice supported wireless clients allowed to exist (and
consume bandwidth) within the radio's QoS policy. Select from an
available range of 0-256 clients. Consider setting this value proportionally
to the number of other QoS policies supporting the voice access
category, as wireless clients supporting voice use a greater proportion of
resources than lower bandwidth traffic (like low and best effort
categories). The default value is 100 clients.
Set the number of voice supported wireless clients allowed to roam to a
different access point radio. Select from a range of 0-256 clients. The
default value is 10 roamed clients.
Set the roam utilization (in the form of a percentage of the radio's
bandwidth) allotted to admission control for voice supported clients who
have roamed to a different access point radio. The available percentage
range is from 0-150%, with 150% available to account for over-
subscription. The default value is 10.
Select the check box to enable admission control for video traffic. Only
normal background traffic admission control is enabled, not any of the
other access categories (each access category must be separately
enabled and configured). This feature is disabled by default.
Set the maximum airtime (in the form of a percentage of the radio's
bandwidth) allotted to admission control for normal background client
traffic. The available percentage range is from 0-150%, with 150% being
available to account for over-subscription. This value helps ensure the
radio's bandwidth is available for lower bandwidth normal traffic (if
anticipated to proliferate the wireless medium). Normal background traffic
only needs a short radio airtime to process, so set an intermediate
airtime value if the radio QoS policy is reserved for background data
support. The default value is 75.
Set the number of wireless clients supporting background traffic allowed
to exist (and consume bandwidth) within the radio's QoS policy. Select
from an available range of 0-256 clients. The default value is 100 clients.
Set the number of normal background supported wireless clients allowed
to roam to a different managed access point radio. Select from a range
of 0-256 clients. The default value is 10 roamed clients.
Set the roam utilization (in the form of a percentage of the radio's
bandwidth) allotted to admission control for normal background
supported clients who have roamed to a different managed radio. The
available percentage range is from 0-150%, with 150% available to
account for over-subscription. The default value is 10%.
Select the check box to enable admission control for video traffic. Only
video traffic admission control is enabled, not any of the other access
categories (each access category must be separately enabled and
configured). This feature is disabled by default.
Set the maximum airtime (in the form of a percentage of the radio's
bandwidth) allotted to admission control for video supported client traffic.
The available percentage range is from 0-150%, with 150% being
available to account for over-subscription. This value helps ensure the
radio's bandwidth is available for high bandwidth video traffic (if
anticipated on the wireless medium) or other access category traffic if
video support is not prioritized. Video traffic requires longer radio airtime
to process, so set a longer airtime value if the radio QoS policy is
intended to support video. The default value is 75.
