Advanced Configuration
Parameter Description
Max SUs Represents the maximum number of SUs that can register with a BSU. The maximum SUs
are limited to the licensed number of SUs.
: Applicable only in BSU mode.
WORP MTU WORP MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) is the largest size of the data payload in wireless
frame that can be transmitted. The MTU size can range from 350 to 3808 bytes for High
throughput modes and 350 to 2304 bytes for legacy mode. The default and maximum
value of the WORP MTU is 3808 bytes for higher throughput and 2304 bytes for legacy
mode.
Super Framing Super Framing refers to the mechanism that enables multiple Ethernet/802.3 frames to be
packed in a single WORP data frame. When the WORP MTU size is configured larger than the
Ethernet frame size, then WORP constructs a super frame with size of the WORP MTU
configured and pack multiple Ethernet frames. It results in reducing the number of frames
transmitted over wireless medium thereby conserving wireless medium and increasing the
overall throughput. By default it is Enabled.
Sleep Mode A BSU can put SUs in sleep mode when there is no data transmission during the past 15
seconds. This reduces the traffic congestion in the wireless medium and preserves the
wireless bandwidth for other SUs in the network. BSU polls sleeping SUs once in every 4
seconds to maintain the wireless connection. By default, it is Disabled.
: Applicable only in BSU mode.
Multi Frame Bursting To achieve higher throughput, WORP protocol allows the transmitter or receiver to send
multiple data frames in sequence without waiting for acknowledgment for every data
frame and treats it as a single burst. During the burst transmission, the receiver is not
allowed to interrupt the transmitter. After compilation of the burst, the receiver response by
sending the acknowledgement.
By default, the Multi Frame Bursting feature is Enabled on the device. When Multi Frame
Bursting is enabled, the maximum data frames that can be transmitted for each burst can be
configured as part of Quality of Service (QoS).
: Though Multi Frame Bursting configuration is not applicable from SU/End Point B,
the SU/End Point B does Multi Frame Bursting under the control of BSU/End Point A
respectively.
