Command Usage
If the packet size is smaller than the preset Fragment size,
the packet will not be segmented.
Fragmentation of the PDUs (Package Data Unit) can
increase the reliability of transmissions because it increases
the probability of a successful transmission due to smaller
frame size. If there is significant interference present, or
collisions due to high network utilization, try setting the
fragment size to send smaller fragments. This will speed up
the retransmission of smaller frames. However, it is more
efficient to set the fragment size larger if very little or no
interference is present because it requires overhead to send
multiple frames.
Example
rts-threshold
This command sets the packet size threshold at which a Request
to Send (RTS) signal must be sent to the receiving remote bridge
prior to the sending bridge starting communications.
Syntax
rts-threshold <threshold>
threshold - Threshold packet size for which to send an RTS.
