Table 48. Global RF Parameter Descriptions

Parameter

Explanation

 

 

 

 

Perform RFC1042/

Determines how the access point will handle the

DIX Conversion

conversion of RFC1042/DIX frames that are

 

received on its radio ports.

 

Check this check box if the frames that are

 

received and have a protocol type equal to a

 

value in the “RFC1042 types to pass through” list

 

are forwarded without conversion. If the frame

 

has a protocol type that is not found in the list, it

 

will be converted to DIX format before it is

 

forwarded.

 

Clear this check box if the frames that are

 

received are forwarded without conversion; that

 

is, when a SNAP frame is received from a radio

 

with an OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier)

 

equal to 000000, it will be forwarded without

 

conversion.

 

 

S-UHF Rfp

Specifies the largest data frame that can be

Threshold

transmitted without reserving airtime. Air time is

(S-UHF radios

normally reserved to help prevent collisions with

other transmitters; however, when the amount of

only)

data is small enough, sending the data may be

 

more effective than creating the reservation.

 

 

S-UHF Frag Size

Specifies the largest data frame that can be

(S-UHF radios

transmitted without fragmentation. On certain

radios, fragmentation does not occur unless the

only)

radio detects interference. Larger frame sizes can

 

improve throughput on a reliable connection,

 

while smaller frame sizes can improve throughput

 

on a poor connection.

 

 

902 MHz Frag Size

Specifies the largest data frame that can be

(902 MHz radios

transmitted without fragmentation. On certain

radios, fragmentation does not occur unless the

only)

radio detects interference. Larger frame sizes can

 

improve throughput on a reliable connection,

 

while smaller frame sizes can improve throughput

 

on a poor connection.
