WMM Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification based on the IEEE 802.11e standard, which provides Quality of Service (QoS) features to IEEE 802.11 networks. WMM prioritizes traffic according to four categories: background, best effort, video and voice. Configuring WMM consists of adjusting parameters on queues for different categories of wireless traffic. Traffic is sent to the following queues:
Background Low Priority Best Effort Medium Priority High Priority High Priority Video Voice High throughput, non time sensitive bulk data e.g. FTP Traditional IP data, medium throughput and delay. Time sensitive video data with minimum time delay. Time sensitive data such as VoIP and streaming media with minimum time delay. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delays for video, voice, multimedia and critical applications. The values can further be adjusted manually:
67 CWMin CWMax AIFSN TxOP 68 Minimum Contention Window (milliseconds):
This value is input to the initial random backoff wait time algorithm for retry of a data frame transmission. The backoff wait time will be generated between 0 and this value. If the frame is not sent, the random backoff value is doubled until the value reaches the number defined by CWMax (below). The CWMin value must be lower than the CWMax value. The contention window scheme helps to avoid frame collisions and determine priority of frame transmission. A shorter window has a higher probability (priority) of transmission. Maximum Contention Window (milliseconds):
This value is the upper limit to random backoff value doubling (see above). Arbitration Inter-Frame Space (milliseconds):
Specifies additional time between when a channel goes idle and the AP/client sends data frames. Traffic with a lower AIFSN value has a higher priority. Transmission Opportunity (milliseconds): The maximum interval of time an AP/client can transmit. This makes channel access more efficiently prioritized. A value of 0 means only one frame per transmission. A greater value effects higher priority. IV-4. Management Screenshots displayed are examples.

Glossary Default Gateway (Access point): Every non-access point IP device needs to configure a default gateways IP address. When the device sends out an IP packet, if the destination is not on the same network, the device has to send the packet to its default gateway, which will then send it out towards the destination. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically gives every computer on your home network an IP address. DNS Server IP Address: DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet servers to have a domain name (such as www.Broadbandaccess point.com) and one or more IP addresses (such as 192.34.45.8). A DNS server keeps a database of Internet servers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a domain name is requested (as in typing
"Broadbandaccess point.com" into your Internet browser), the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server IP address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS server your ISP has assigned to you. DSL Modem: DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds. Ethernet: A standard for computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by special cables and hubs, and move data around at up to 10/100 million bits per second (Mbps). IP Address and Network (Subnet) Mask: IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that identifies a single, unique Internet computer host in an IP network. Example:
192.168.2.1. It consists of 2 portions: the IP network address, and the host identifier. The IP address is a 32-bit binary pattern, which can be represented as four cascaded decimal numbers separated by .: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa, where each aaa can be anything from 000 to 255, or as four cascaded binary numbers separated by .: bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb, where each b can either be 0 or 1. 97 A network mask is also a 32-bit binary pattern, and consists of consecutive leading 1s followed by consecutive trailing 0s, such as 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000. Therefore sometimes a network mask can also be described simply as x number of leading 1s. When both are represented side by side in their binary forms, all bits in the IP address that correspond to 1s in the network mask become part of the IP network address, and the remaining bits correspond to the host ID. For example, if the IP address for a device is, in its binary form, 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000111, and if its network mask is, 11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000 It means the devices network address is 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000000, and its host ID is, 00000000.00000000.00000000.00000111. This is a convenient and efficient method for access points to route IP packets to their destination. ISP Gateway Address: (see ISP for definition). The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet access point located at the ISP's office. ISP: Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations. LAN: Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small area (such as a house or an office). Your home network is considered a LAN. MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the products serial number. NAT: Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address. Using the broadband access points NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP. Port: Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers:
98 23 21 25 110 1720 161 162 80 1723 5631 5632 Application Protocol Port Number TCP Telnet TCP FTP TCP SMTP TCP POP3 TCP H.323 SNMP UCP SNMP Trap UDP HTTP TCP PPTP TCP PC Anywhere TCP PC Anywhere UDP Access point: A access point is an intelligent network device that forwards packets between different networks based on network layer address information such as IP addresses. Subnet Mask: A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP information provided by your ISP, is a set of four numbers (e.g. 255.255.255.0) configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP address numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to valid IP address numbers recognized by the Internet, which must be assigned by InterNIC). TCP/IP, UDP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Unreliable Datagram Protocol (UDP). TCP/IP is the standard protocol for data transmission over the Internet. Both TCP and UDP are transport layer protocol. TCP performs proper error detection and error recovery, and thus is reliable. UDP on the other hand is not reliable. They both run on top of the IP (Internet Protocol), a network layer protocol. WAN: Wide Area Network. A network that connects computers located in geographically separate areas (e.g. different buildings, cities, countries). The Internet is a wide area network. Web-based management Graphical User Interface (GUI): Many devices support a graphical user interface that is based on the web browser. This means the user can use the familiar Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer to Control/configure or monitor the device being managed. 99 Hardware Specification V-2.
