2.5.2 Enhanced Packet Prioritization (EPP)
Enhanced Packet Prioritization (EPP) enables system administrators to
prioritize packet transmissions from an AP to MUs. For example, media
content (streaming video, phones etc.) can be prioritized over a heavily
loaded access point. EPP allows prioritization of the media for smooth
delivery or selected data traffic for expedited delivery at some cost in
aggregate bandwidth through the access point.
Phone traffic by default is prioritized over data traffic whether EPP Control is
Enabled or not. If the only network requirement is for phone prioritization
over data, Disable EPP Control. If EPP Control is Enabled, assign a phone
traffic priority appropriate to site requirements.
To configure EPP:
1. Click F3 from the RF Configuration screen.
The Configure Enhanced Packet Prioritization screen displays.

2. Prioritize network traffic by assigning either 10 to those data types
requiring high network throughput priority or
30 to those data types
receiving standard priority.
3. Enter numbers for the TCP Ports as needed.
