Configuring MAPs 243

To change the RTS threshold, use the following command:

set radio-profile name rts-threshold threshold

The threshold can be a value from 256 bytes through 3000 bytes. The default is 2346.

To change the RTS threshold for radio profile rp1 to 1500 bytes, type the following command:

WX1200# set radio-profile rp1 rts-threshold 1500 success: change accepted.

Changing the Fragmentation Threshold The fragmentation threshold specifies the longest a frame can be without being fragmented into multiple frames by a radio before transmission. To change the fragmentation threshold, use the following command:

set radio-profile name frag-threshold threshold

The threshold can be a value from 256 through 2346. The default is 2346.

To change the fragmentation threshold for radio profile rp1 to 1500 bytes, type the following command:

WX1200# set radio-profile rp1 frag-threshold 1500 success: change accepted.

Changing the Maximum Receive Threshold The maximum receive threshold specifies the number of milliseconds a frame received by a radio can remain in buffer memory. To change the maximum receive lifetime, use the following command:

set radio-profile name max-rx-lifetime time

The time can be from 500 ms (0.5 second) through 250,000 ms (250 seconds). The default is 2000 ms (2 seconds).

To change the maximum receive threshold for radio profile rp1 to

4000 ms, type the following command:

WX1200# set radio-profile rp1 max-rx-lifetime 4000 success: change accepted.
