Status:
VAP can be Enabled or Disabled here
Profile Name:
The profile name of a specific RF card and its VAP for identity / management
purposes.
Service Zone:
Select the mapping Service Zone for the VAP from the drop-down list
VLAN ID:
Select the VLAN ID for this VAP
SSID:
The SSID serves as an identifier for clients to associate with the specific VAP. It can be coupled
with different service levels like a variety of wireless security types.
RTS Threshold:
Enter a value between 1 and 2346. RTS (Request to Send) Threshold
determines
the packet size at which the system issues a request to send (RTS) before sending the fragment to
prevent the hidden node problem. The RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the
value provided
.
A lower RTS Threshold setting can be useful in areas where many client devices are
associating with the AP or in areas where the clients are far apart and can detect only the AP but not
each other.
DTIM Period:
Input the DTIM Interval that is generated within the periodic beacon at a specified
frequency. Higher DTIM will allow the wireless client to save more energy, but the throughput will be
lowered.
Consecutive Retries Threshold:
This is the maximum number of transmission retries the AP will
attempt when packet transmission fails before deciding the client is out of transmission reach. When
transmission retries fails for the set number of times, the Access Point kicks the client to optimize
performance for other connected clients.
SSID Broadcast:
Disabling this function will stop the system from broadcasting its SSID. If broadcast
of the SSID is disabled, only devices that have the correct SSID can connect to the system.
Wireless Client Isolation:
By enabling this function, all stations associated with the system are
isolated and can only communicate with the system.
Wireless QoS WMM:
Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Quality of Service (QoS) feature that prioritizes
wireless data packets based on four access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background.
Applications without WMM and applications that do not require QoS are assigned to the best-effort
category, which receives a lower priority than that of voice and video. Therefore, WMM decides
which data streams are more important and assigns them a higher traffic priority. This option works
with WMM-capable clients only.
IAPP:
IAPP (Inter Access Point Protocol) is a protocol by which access points share information
about the stations connected to them. When this function is enabled, the system will automatically
broadcast information of associated wireless stations to its peer access points. This will help wireless
stations roam smoothly among IAPP-enabled access points in the same wireless LAN.
IGMP Snooping:
When IGMP snooping is enabled, IGMP packets are transferred via the Access
Point
’s network interface and the IP multicast host. Registration information is recorded and sorted
into multicast groups. The internal switch can then intelligently forward traffic only to those ports that
request multicast traffic. Adversely, without IGMP snooping, multicast traffic is treated like broadcast
traffic, with packets forwarded to all ports causing network inefficiencies.
Multicast/Broadcast Rate:
Bandwidth configuration for multicast/broadcast packets. If your wireless
