Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different
types of wireless traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait
times for the transmission of packets in each queue based on the requirements of the
media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay for
Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort

Description
parameters for traditional IP data.
As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively
higher priority for transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other
applications and traditional IP data which are less time-sensitive but often more data-
intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.
Aifsn: The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in
o
milliseconds) for data frames
CWmin: Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm
o
that determines the initial random back-off wait time ("window") for retry of a
transmission. The value specified here in the Minimum Contention Window is the
upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off
wait time is determined.
CWmax: Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the
o
Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling
of the random back-off value. This doubling continues until either the data frame
is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the Maximum
Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number
of retries allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63,
127, 255, 511, or 1024. The value for "cwmax" must be higher than the value for
"cwmin".
Txop: Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a WME AP has the
o
right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM). This value
specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) for AP; that is, the
interval of time when the WMM AP has the right to initiate transmissions on the
wireless network.
ACM: Admission Control Mandatory, ACM only takes effect on AC_VI and AC_VO.
o
When you do not click Checkbox, it means that the ACM is controlled by the
connecting AP. If you click Checkbox, it means that the Client is in charge.
AckPolicy: Acknowledgment Policy, WMM defines two ACK policies: Normal ACK
o
and No ACK. Click "Checkbox" indicates "No ACK"
