Enable/Disable Wi-Fi Multimedia

By default, Wi-Fi MultiMedia (WMM) is enabled on the access point. With
WMM enabled, QoS settings on the AT-WA7400 Wireless Access Point
control both downstream traffic flowing from the access point to client
station (access point EDCA parameters) and upstream traffic flowing from
the station to the access point (station EDCA parameters). Enabling WMM
essentially activates station-to-access point QoS control.

Disabling WMM will deactivates QoS control of station EDCA parameters
on upstream traffic flowing from the station to the access point. With WMM
disabled, you can still set downstream access point-to-station QoS
parameters but no station-to-access point QoS parameters.

ˆ

To disable WMM:

AT-WA7400# set radio wlan0 wme off

AT-WA7400# get radio wlan0 wme

off

ˆ

To enable WMM:

AT-WA7400# set radio wlan0 wme on

AT-WA7400# get radio wlan0 wme

on

About Access Point and Station EDCA Parameters

AP Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) Parameters affect
traffic flowing from the access point to the client station (access point-to-
station).

Station Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) Parameters affect
traffic flowing from the client station to the access point (station-to-access
point). Keep in mind that station-to-access point parameters apply only
when WMM is enabled as described in “Enable/Disable Wi-Fi Multimedia”
on page 336 above.
