Wireless Client
Classification

Use the drop-down menu to select the

Wireless Client

Classification for this WLAN's intended

traffic type. The classification categories are the different WLAN-WMM options available to the
radio. Classification types include:
WMM – Implies WiFi Multimedia QoS extensions are enabled on this radio. This allows different
traffic streams between the wireless client and the Access Point to be prioritized according to the
type of traffic (voice, video etc). The WMM classification is required to support the high throughput
data rates required of 802.11n device support. WMM is the default setting.
Voice – Optimized for voice traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as voice traffic on
the radio.
Video – Optimized for video traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as video traffic on
the radio.
Normal – Optimized for best effort traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as best effort
traffic on the radio.
Low – Optimized for background traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is low priority on the radio.
Non-Unicast – Optimized for non-Unicast traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is designed for
broadcast or multiple destinations.

Non-Unicast Classification

Use the drop-down menu to select the Non-Unicast Classification for this WLAN's intended traffic.
Non-unicast classification types include:
Voice – Optimized for voice traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as voice traffic on
the radio.
Video – Optimized for video traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as video traffic on
the radio.
Normal – Optimized for best effort traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as best effort
traffic on the radio.
Low – Optimized for background traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is low priority on the radio.

Enable Voice Prioritization

Select this option if Voice traffic is prioritized on the WLAN. This gives priority to voice and voice
management packets supported only on certain legacy Brocade VOIP phones. This feature is
disabled by default.

Enable SVP Prioritization

Enabling Spectralink Voice Prioritization (SVP) allows the identification and prioritization of traffic
from Spectralink/Polycomm phones. This gives priority to voice on certain legacy Brocade VOIP
phones. If the wireless client classification is WMM, non WMM devices recognized as voice devices
have their traffic transmitted at voice priority. Devices are classified as voice when they emit SIP,
SCCP, or H323 traffic. Thus, selecting this option has no effect on devices supporting WMM. This
feature is disabled by default.

Enable WMM Power Save

Enables support for the WMM based power-save mechanism, also known as Unscheduled
Automatic Power Save Delivery
(U-APSD). This is primarily used by voice devices that are WMM
capable. The default setting is enabled.

Enable QBSS Load IE

Check this option to enable a QoS Basis Service Set (QBSS) information element (IE) in beacons
and probe response packets advertised by Access Points. The default value is enabled.

Configure Non WMM Client
Traffic

Use the drop-down menu to select the Non-WMM client traffic Classification.
Non-WMM classification types include:
Voice – Optimized for voice traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as voice traffic on
the radio.
Video – Optimized for video traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as video traffic on
the radio.
Normal – Optimized for best effort traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is prioritized as best effort
traffic on the radio.
Low – Optimized for background traffic. Implies all traffic on this WLAN is low priority on the radio.
