WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Software Administration Manual
Configuring WLANS 5-15
v1.0, June 2007
The radio configuration in the Advanced WLAN pages allow you to configure the following
settings:
• RTS Threshold. Wireless clients transmitting frames larger than this threshold must issue
Request to Send (RTS) and wait for the AP to respond with Clear to Send (CTS). This helps
prevent mid-air collisions for wireless clients that are not within wireless peer range and
cannot detect when other wireless clients are transmitting. The default is 2333 bytes.
• Ageout. Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, that a client is allowed to remain idle before
being aged out. The default is 1000 seconds.
• Hide SSID. Enables or disables hiding of the SSID name in beacon frames.
• Deny Broadcast. When a client sends a broadcast probe request frame to search for all
available SSIDs, this option controls whether or not the system responds for this SSID. When
enabled, no response is sent and clients must know the SSID in order to associate to the SSID.
When disabled, a probe response frame is sent for this SSID.
• Max Retries. Specifies the maximum number of retries allowed for the AP to send a frame.
The recommended range is between 3 and 7. The default is 3.
