6. Select the Advanced Settings tab to strategically map BSSIDs to WLANs in order to define
them as primary WLANs.
Beacon Interval The beacon interval controls the performance of power save
stations. A small interval may make power save stations more
responsive, but it will also cause them to consume more battery
power. A large interval makes power save stations less responsive,
but could increase power savings.
The default is 100. Avoid changing this parameter as it can
adversely affect performance.
DTIM Interval The DTIM interval defines how often broadcast frames are
delivered. If a system has an abundance of broadcast traffic and it
needs to be delivered quickly, Symbol recommends decreasing the
DTIM interval. However, decreasing the DTIM interval decreases
the battery life on power save stations. The default is 10. Symbol
recommends using the default value unless qualified to understand
the performance risks of changing it.
