Select or Parameter to Type
Description
beacon_interval milliseconds The time in milliseconds between the beacon
transmissions.
dtim_interval milliseconds The time in milliseconds between each
delivery traffic indication message (DTIM).
rts_threshold bytes The Request to Send (RTS) threshold in
bytes.
fragmentation_threshold bytes The maximum length of the frame in bytes.
preamble_mode Long or Short The type of 802.11b preamble that is
prepended to every frame:
• Long. A long transmit preamble might
provide a more reliable connection or a
slightly longer range.
• Short. A short transmit preamble gives
better performance.
protection_mode CTS-to-Self_Protection
or None
The Clear to Send (CTS)-to-self protection
mode:
• CTS-to-Self_Protection. CTS-to-self
protection mode is enabled. This mode
increases the performance but reduces the
throughput slightly.
• None. CTS-to-self protection mode is
disabled.
power_save_enable Y or N Enables or disables Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)
power save.
