LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
Beacon | When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a |
Interval | beacon interval. This specifies the time period before the device sends the |
| beacon again. The interval tells receiving devices on the network how long |
| they can wait in |
| This value can be set from 1ms to 1000ms. A high value helps save |
| current consumption of the access point. |
|
|
RTS | Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS |
Threshold | (Request To Send)/CTS (Clear to Send) handshake. |
| Enter a value between 256 and 2432 to enable an RTS/CTS handshake to |
| avoid retransmitting due to hidden nodes. |
|
|
Fragmentatio | The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for |
n Threshold | directed messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be |
| sent. Enter an even number between 800 and 2432. |
