Station Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) Parameters affect traffic flowing from the client
station to the access point (station-to-AP). Keep in mind that station-to-AP parameters apply only when
WMM is enabled as described in “Enable/Disable Wi-Fi Multimedia”.
Understanding the Queues for AP and Station
The same types of queues are defined for different kinds of data transmitted from AP-to-station and
station-to-AP but they are referenced by differently depending on whether you are configuring AP or
station parameters.
Data AP Station
Voice - High priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data
such as VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this
q
ueue.

Video - High priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive
video data is automaticall

sent to this
q
ueue.

Best Effort - Medium priority queue, medium throughput and

. Most traditional IP data is sent to this
q
ueue.

Background - Lowest priority queue, high
throughput. Bulk data
that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is
sent to this

Distinguishing between AP and Station Settings in QoS Commands
Access Point - To get and set QoS settings on the access point (AP), use "tx-queue" class name in the
command.
Station - To get and set QoS settings on the client station, use the "wme-queue" class name in the
command.
Get QoS Settings on the AP
To view the current QoS settings and queue names for AP-to-station parameters:
