Configure the following additional settings:
• No Acknowledgement—Select Enable to specify that the WAP device
should not acknowledge frames with QosNoAck as the service class value.
• Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery—Select Enable to enable
APSD, which is a power management method. APSD is recommended if
VoIP phones access the network through the WAP device.
Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and
restarted. When this happens, the WAP device may lose connectivity. We
recommend that you change WAP device settings when a loss of connectivity will
least affect your wireless clients.
This section describes the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) protocol and its
configuration on the WAP device.

WPS Overview

WPS is a standard that enables simple establishment of wireless networks
without compromising network security. It relieves both the wireless client users
and the WAP device administrators from having to know network names, keys, and
various other cryptographic configuration options.
WPS facilitates network setup by allowing the administrator to use a push button
or PIN to establish wireless networks, which avoids the manual entry of network
names (SSIDs) and wireless security parameters:
• Push button: The WPS button is either on the product or a clickable button
on the user interface.
• Personal Identification Number (PIN): The PIN can be viewed in the
product user interface.
