network, you can enter new Fragment Threshold value to split the packet. The value can be set from 256 to 2346. The default value is 2346. RTS Threshold RTS Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node” problem. “Hidden Node” is a situation in which two stations are within range of the same Access Point, but are not within range of each other. Therefore, they are hidden nodes for each other. When a station starts data transmission with the Access Point, it might not notice that the other station is already using the wireless medium. When these two stations send data at the same time, they might collide when arriving simultaneously at the Access Point. The collision will most certainly result in a loss of messages for both stations. Thus, the RTS Threshold mechanism provides a solution to prevent data collisions. When you enable RTS Threshold on a suspect “hidden station”, this station and its Access Point will use a Request to Send (RTS). The station will send an RTS to the Access Point, informing that it is going to transmit the data. Upon receipt, the Access Point will respond with a CTS message to all station within its range to notify all other stations to defer transmission. It will also confirm the requestor station that the Access Point has reserved it for the time-frame of the requested transmission. If the “Hidden Node” problem is an issue, please specify the packet size. The RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the value you set.. The default value is 2347. Warning: Enabling RTS Threshold will cause redundant network overhead that could negatively affect the throughput performance instead of providing a remedy. This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications of this value are recommended. Beacon Interval Beacon Interval is the amount of time between beacon transmissions. Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs the beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon (and learn whether there are buffered frames at the access point). Data Rate By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate for transmission. Select the basic rates to be used among the following options: Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 11or 54 Mbps. For most networks the default setting is Auto which is the best choice. When Auto is enabled the transmission rate will 25 AirLive WL-5470POE User’s Manual select the optimal rate. If obstacles or interference are present, the system will automatically fall back to a lower rate. Preamble Type A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment to synchronize the transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start frame delimiter. In a "noisy" network environment, the Preamble Type should be set to Long Preamble. The Short Preamble is intended for applications where minimum overhead and maximum performance is desired. If in a "noisy" network environment, the performance will be decreased. Broadcast SSID Select enabled to allow all the wireless stations to detect the SSID of this Access Point. IAPP IAPP (Inter Access Point Protocol) is designed for the enforcement of unique association throughout a ESS (Extended Service Set) and a secure exchange of station’s security context between current access point (AP) and new AP during handoff period. 802.11g Protection The 802.11g standard includes a protection mechanism to ensure mixed 802.11b and 802.11g operation. If there is no such kind of mechanism exists, the two kinds of standards may mutually interfere and decrease network’s performance. TX Power Level For countries that impose limit on WLAN output power, it might be necessary to reduce TX (transmit) power. There are 7 TX Power Levels to choose from — select a level to make sure that the output power measured at the antenna end will not exceed the legal limit in your country. Notice: Output Power selection feature to be disabled for products marketed to the US. Enable Watch dog Check and enable this watch dog function Watch Interval Setup the interval time for watch dog function between 1 to 60 mins Watch Host Enter the watch dog host ip address . ACK Timeout When a packet is sent out from one wireless station to the other, it will waits for an Acknowledgement frame from the remote station. If the ACK is NOT received within that timeout period then the packet will be re-transmitted resulting in reduced throughput. If the ACK setting is too high then throughput will be lost due to waiting for the ACK Window to timeout on lost packets. By having the ability to adjust the ACK setting we can effectively optimize the throughput over long distance links. This is especially true for 802.11a and 802.11g networks You can set as default for auto adjustment. Apply Change Press to save the new settings on the screen.
