configuration for that radio.

SSID

Displays the Service Set ID (SSID) associated with the selected WMM index. This
SSID is read-only and cannot be modified within this screen.

Access Category

Displays the Access Category for the intended radio traffic. The Access Categories
are the different WLAN-WMM options available to the radio.
The four Access Category types are:

Background - Optimized for background traffic

Best-effort - Optimized for best effort traffic

Video - Optimized for video traffic. Video traffic receives priority.

Voice - Optimized for voice traffic. Voice traffic receives priority.

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 to a low
number.

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
