Wireless Array
248 Configuring the Wireless Array
• DSCP 40 is typically used for video traffic and is set to QoS
level 2.
• DSCP 48 is typically used for voice traffic and is set to QoS
level 3—the highest level
• All other DSCP values are set to QoS level 0 (the lowest level—
Best Effort).
Packet Filtering QoS classification
 Filter rules can be used to redefine the QoS priority level to override
defaults. See “Filter Management” on page 347. This allows the QoS
priority level to be assigned based on protocol, source, or destination.
Voice Support
 The QoS priority implementation on the Array give voice packets the
highest priority to support voice applications.
High Density 2.4G Enhancement—Honeypot SSID
Some situations pose problems for all wireless APs. For example, iPhones will
re
member every SSID and flood the airwaves with probes, even when the user
doesn’t request or desire this behavior. In very high density deployments, these
probes can consume a significant amount of the available wireless bandwidth.
The Array offers a feature targeting this problem—a “honeypot” SSID. Simply
create an SSID named honeypot on the Array. Once this SSID is created and
enabled, it will respond to any station probe looking for an open (unencrypted)
SSID that is not configured on the Array.
Traffic for a station connected to the honeypot SSID may be handled in a various
ways:
 it may be directed to WPR to display a splash page or offer the user the
opportunity to sign in to your service (see “Web Page Redirect
Configuration Settings” on page 255);
 it may be filtered;
 or it may be dead-ended by defining a specific dead-end VLAN on the
honeypot SSID to “trap” stations.
