A high number of retries can indicate interference or excessive congestion.
Wireless phones, which send traffic to a multicast address, may have a high
percentage of nonunicast traffic. For traditional stations, a high percentage of
nonunicast traffic can be normal for brief periods—for example, when the
station first associates and requests a DHCP address. You may be able to
decrease the number of frames that stations broadcast by enabling proxy ARP.
(See Chapter 4: Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs).)
