AIFSN	Define the current Arbitrary Inter-frame Space Number (AIFSN). Higher-priority traffic
	categories should have lower AIFSNs than lower-priority traffic categories. This will causes
	lower-priority traffic to wait longer before trying to access the medium.
Transmit Ops	Define the maximum duration a device can transmit after obtaining a transmit opportunity.
	For Higher-priority traffic categories, this value should be set higher.
CW Minimum	The CW Minimum is combined with the CW Maximum to make the Contention screen. From
	this range, a random number is selected for the back off mechanism. Select a lower value
	for high priority traffic.
CW Maximum	The CW Maximum is combined with the CW Minimum to make the Contention screen. From
	this range, a random number is selected for the back off mechanism. Lower values are used
	for higher priority traffic
Use DSCP or 802.1p	Select the DSCP or 802.1p radio buttons to choose between DSCP and 802.1p.

5.Select the Admission Control checkbox (enabled for only Voice and Video access categories) to define (limit) the number of MUs permitted to interoperate within this multimedia supported WLAN.

Once selected, the maximum number of MUs allowed is 250. Limiting MU traffic in a multimedia (voice or video) supported WLAN is a good idea to maintain data rates and throughput.

6.Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field displays error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and the switch.

7.Click OK to use the changes to the running configuration and close the dialog.

The Mobile Units screen displays read-only device information for MUs interoperating with the switch managed network. The Mobile Units screen consists of the following tabs:

•Viewing MU Status

•Viewing MU Statistics

NOTE: The Motorola RF Management Software is a recommended utility to plan the deployment of the switch and view its configuration once operational in the field. Motorola RFMS can help optimize the positioning and configuration of a switch in respect to a WLAN’s MU throughput requirements and can help detect rogue devices. For more information, refer to the Motorola Web site.
