902il-

mode
(For clients using NTT DoCoMo 902iL phones only) When enabled, the
controller does not drop packets from the client if a small or old
initialization vector value is received. (When TKIP or AES is used for
encryption and TSPEC is enabled, the phone resets the value of the
initialization vector after add/delete TSPEC.)
NOTE: This parameter requires the PEFNG license.

a-basic-rates List of supported 802.11a rates, in Mbps, that are advertised in beacon
frames and probe responses.
6, 9, 12, 18,
24, 36, 48,
54 Mbps
6, 12, 24
Mbps
a-beacon-rate Sets the beacon rate for 802.11a (use for Distributed Antenna System
(DAS) only). Using this parameter in normal operation may cause
connectivity problems.

valid rate
a-tx-rates Set of 802.11a rates at which the AP is allowed to send data. The actual
transmit rate depends on what the client is able to handle, based on
information sent at the time of association and on the current error/loss
rate of the client.

ageout Time, in seconds, that a client is allowed to remain idle before being aged
out.
1000
seconds
battery-boost Converts multicast traffic to unicast before delivery to the client, thus
allowing you to set a longer DTIM interval. The longer interval keeps
associated wireless clients from activating their radios for multicast
indication and delivery, leaving them in power-save mode longer and thus
lengthening battery life.
NOTE: This parameter requires the PEFNG license.
— disabled
clone Name of an existing SSID profile from which parameter values are
copied.
——
deny-bcast 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 have to
know the SSID in order to associate to the SSID. When disabled, a probe
response frame is sent for this SSID.
— disabled
disable-probe-
retry
Enable or disable battery MAC level retries for probe response frames. By
default this parameter is enabled, which mean that MAC level retries for
probe response frames is disabled.
Enabled
dtim-period Specifies the interval, in milliseconds, between the sending of Delivery
Traffic Indication Messages (DTIMs) in the beacon. This is the maximum
number of beacon cycles before unacknowledged network broadcasts
are flushed. When using wireless clients that employ power management
features to sleep, the client must revive at least once during the DTIM
period to receive broadcasts.

eapol-rate-opt Enable rate optimization for delivering EAPOL frames. disabled
edca-parameters
-profile
Name of the enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) profile that
applies to this SSID.
NOTE: This parameter requires the PEFNG license. Configure this
parameter only under the guidance of your Dell representative.
——
ap|sta
Assigns the specified EDCA profile to AP or station (client). — —
essid Name that uniquely identifies a wireless network. The ESSID can be up to
31 characters. If the ESSID includes spaces, you must enclose it in
quotation marks.
