frag-threshold

Changes the fragmentation threshold for the MAP radios in a radio
profile. The fragmentation threshold is the threshold at which the
long-retry-count is applicable instead of the short-retry-count.

The long-retry-count specifies the number of times a radio can send a
unicast frame that is equal to or longer than the frag-threshold without
receiving an acknowledgment.

The short-retry-count specifies the number of times a radio can send a
unicast frame that is shorter than the frag-threshold without receiving an
acknowledgment.

Syntax

set radio-profile

name frag-threshold threshold

„

name

— Radio profile name.

„

threshold

— Maximum frame length, in bytes. You can enter a value

from 256 through 2346.

Defaults — The default fragmentation threshold for MAP radios is 2346
bytes.

Access — Enabled.

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.

Usage — You must disable all radios using a radio profile before you can
change parameters in the profile. Use the set radio-profile mode command.

The frag-threshold does not specify the maximum length a frame is
allowed to be without being broken into multiple frames before
transmission. The MAPs do not support fragmentation upon
transmission, only upon reception.

The frag-threshold does not change the RTS threshold, which specifies
the maximum length of a frame before the radio uses the RTS/CTS
method to send the frame. To change the RTS threshold, use the set
radio-profile rts-threshold
command instead.

Examples — The following command changes the fragmentation
threshold for radio profile rp1 to 1500 bytes:

WX4400# set radio-profile rp1 frag-threshold 1500

success: change accepted.
