Table 60: WMM AC-DSCP Mapping
By customizing WMM AC mappings, all packets received are matched against the entries in the mapping table
and prioritized accordingly. The mapping table contains information for upstream (client to W-IAP) and
downstream (W-IAP to client) traffic.
You can configure different WMM to DSCP mapping values for each WMM AC when configuring an SSID profile
by using the Instant UI or the CLI.
In the Instant UI
To configure DSCP mapping values:
1. Navigate to the WLAN wizard.
1. Click Network > New or
2. Click Network, and select the WLAN SSID > edit.
2. Click Show advanced options under WLAN Settings.
3. Specify the appropriate DSCP mapping value within a range of 0–63 for the following access categories in
the DSCP mapping text box:
l Background WMM—DSCP mapping for the background traffic.
l Best effort WMM—DSCP mapping for the best-effort traffic.
l Video WMM—DSCP mapping for the video traffic.
l Voice WMM—DSCP mapping for the voice traffic.
4. Click Next and complete the configuration as required.
In the CLI
Configuring DSCP settings on an SSID:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# wmm-background-dscp <dscp>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# wmm-best-effort-dscp <dscp>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# wmm-video-dscp <dscp>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# wmm-voice-dscp <dscp>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
You can configure up to 8 DSCP mappings values within the range of 0-63. You can also configure a
combination of multiple values separated by a comma, for example, wmm-voice-dscp 46,44,42,41.
