Beacon Interval The time interval between beacon frame transmissions. Beacons contain rate and
capability information. Beacons received by stations can be used to identify the
access points in the area.
DTIM Interval The number of Beacon intervals between DTIM transmissions. Multicast and
broadcast frames are delivered after every DTIM
Fragmentation Threshold Any MSDU or MPDU larger than this value will be fragmented into an MPDU of
the specified size.
RTS Threshold RTS/CTS handshaking will be performed for any data or management MPDU
containing a number of bytes greater than the threshold. If this value is larger than
the MSDU size (typically set by the fragmentation threshold), no handshaking will
be performed. A value of zero will enable handshaking for all MPDUs.
