Configure Wireless and QoS Settings

189

ProSAFE Wireless Controller WC7600

• Best Effort. The medium priority queue with medium delay is given to this queue. Most

standard IP applications use this queue.

• Background. Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications, such as FTP, that

are not time-sensitive but require high throughput can use this queue.

QoS prioritization and coordination of wireless medium access is enabled automatically. QoS

settings on the access point control downstream traffic that flows from the access point to the

client station (AP Enhanced Distributed Channel Access [EDCA] parameters) and the

upstream traffic that flows from the client station to the access point (Station EDCA

parameters).

The Advanced QoS Settings screen lets you change the QoS settings per profile group and

per radio for upstream traffic flowing from the station (that is, the wireless client) to managed

access points and the downstream traffic flowing from managed access points to the station.

These settings are applied only to managed access points that have the capacity to support

these settings.

Disabling WMM deactivates QoS control of station EDCA parameters for upstream traffic

flowing from the client station to the access point. (You can change the settings for the

station EDCA parameters, but these settings do not take effect until you enable WMM.)

However, when WMM is disabled, you can still set some parameters for downstream traffic

flowing from the access point to the client station (AP EDCA parameters), and these settings

do take effect even when WMM is disabled.

Configure Quality of Service for a Profile Group

You can configure Quality of Service (QoS) settings for each advanced profile group.

 To configure the QoS settings for a profile group:

1. Open a web browser. In the browser’s address field, type the http:// followed by the IP

address that you assigned to the wireless controller.

By default, the IP address is 192.168.0.250. If you have not yet assigned another IP

address to the wireless controller, type http://192.168.0.250.

The wireless controller’s login screen displays.

2. Enter your user name and password.

If you have not yet personalized your user name and password, enter admin for the user

name and password for the password, both in lowercase letters.

3. Click the Login button.

The wireless controller’s web management interface opens and displays the Summary

screen.

4. Select Configuration > Wireless > Advanced > QoS.
