D-Link dws-1008 manual Set radio-profile frag-threshold

set radio-profile frag-threshold

Changes the fragmentation threshold for the DWL-8220AP radios in a radio profile. The fragmentation threshold is the threshold at which the long-retry-count is applicable instead of the short-retry-count.

The long-retry-count specifies the number of times a radio can send a unicast frame that is equal to or longer than the frag-threshold without receiving an acknowledgment.

The short-retry-count specifies the number of times a radio can send a unicast frame that is shorter than the frag-threshold without receiving an acknowledgment.

Syntax: set radio-profile name frag-threshold threshold

name	Radio profile name.
threshold	Maximum frame length, in bytes. You can enter a value from 256 through 2346.

Defaults: The default fragmentation threshold for DWL-8220AP radios is 2346 bytes.

Access: Enabled.

Usage: You must disable all radios that are using a radio profile before you can change parameters in the profile. Use the set radio-profile mode command.

The frag-threshold does not specify the maximum length a frame is allowed to be without being broken into multiple frames before transmission.

The frag-threshold does not change the RTS threshold, which specifies the maximum length a frame can be before the radio uses the RTS/CTS method to send the frame. To change the RTS threshold, use the set radio-profilerts-thresholdcommand instead.

Examples: The following command changes the fragmentation threshold for radio profile rp1 to

1500 bytes:

DWS-1008# set radio-profile rp1 frag-threshold 1500 success: change accepted.
