DTIM Period

The Deferred Traffic Indicator Map (DTIM) is

 

used with clients that have power

 

management enabled. DTIM should be left at

 

1, the default value, if any clients have power

 

management enabled. This parameter

 

supports a range between 1 and 255.

 

 

RTS/CTS Medium

This parameter affects message flow control

Reservation

and should not be changed under normal

 

circumstances. Range is 0 to 2347. When set

 

to a value between 0 and 2347, the Access

 

Point uses the RTS/CTS mechanism for

 

packets that are the specified size or greater.

 

When set to 2347 (the default setting),

 

RTS/CTS is disabled. See RTS/CTS Medium

 

Reservation for more information.

 

 

Closed System

Check this box to allow only clients

 

configured with the Access Point’s specific

 

Network Name to associate with the Access

 

Point. When enabled, a client configured with

 

the Network Name "ANY” cannot connect to

 

the AP. This option is disabled by default.
