2. Configure the settings as required:

DTIM Interval

Configure DTIM packet frequency as a multiple of
beacon packets. The DTIM Interval indicates how
many beacons equal one cycle. Users should not
modify this setting or risk damaging the
configuration.

BC/MC Q Max

Determines the memory allocated for the queue
used in the AP to temporarily hold broadcast/
multicast messages. Unit measure is in packets and
corresponds to maximum-sized Ethernet packets.
The default is

10

.

Max Retries (d)

The maximum allowed retries before aborting a
single data packet transmission. The default is

15

.

Users should not modify this setting or risk
damaging the configuration.

Max Retries (v)

The maximum allowed retries before aborting a
single voice packet transmission. The default is

Multicast Mask
(d)

Supports broadcast download protocols for any MU,
typically Point-of-Sale terminals, requiring
the expedited download of a new operating
image over the network instead of using a local
nonvolatile drive.

All multicast downstream data packets that match
the top 32 bits of the multicast mask are forwarded
immediately instead of being queued for
transmission at the next DTIM interval.

Multicast Mask
(v)

Supports broadcast, or party-line, voice
communications. All multicast downstream data
packets that match the top 32 bits of the multicast
mask are forwarded immediately instead of being
queued for transmission at the next DTIM interval.
