6. To configure the advanced wireless settings for the 5 GHz band, select Configuration >
Wireless > Advanced > Wireless Settings > 802.11a/na.
7. To change the default settings, enter the appropriate information in the following fields:
• RTS Threshold (0-2347). Request to Send threshold. The packet size that is used to
determine if the station should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with
Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple
Access/Collision Avoidance) mechanism for packet transmission. The setting affects
the transmitting station as follows:
- With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out
the actual packet until the silence period ends.
- With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out
an RTS packet to the receiving station and waits for the receiving station to send
back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data.
The default is 2347.
• Fragmentation Length (256-2346). This is the maximum packet size. Packets larger
than the size specified in this field are fragmented. The Fragmentation Length value
must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. The default is 2346.
• Beacon Interval (100-1000). The time interval between 100 ms and 1000 ms for
each beacon transmission, which allows the access point to synchronize the wireless
network. The default is 100.
• DTIM Interval (1-255). The delivery traffic indication message. Specifies the data
beacon rate between 1 and 255. The default is 3.
• Max. Wireless Clients. The maximum number of wireless clients that can connect to
the access point at one time. The default is 64 per radio.
