Command History
This command was introduced in ArubaOS 3.0.
Command Information
Station Shaping Policy Shows which of three possible Station Shaping policies is configured on the profile.
z default-access: Traffic shaping is disabled, and client performance is dependent on
MAC contention resolution. This is the default traffic shaping setting.
z fair-access: Each client gets the same airtime, regardless of client capability and
capacity. This option is useful in environments like a training facility or exam hall,
where a mix of 802.11a/g, 802.11g and 802.11n clients need equal to network resources,
regardless of their capabilities. The bw-alloc parameter of a traffic management profile
allows you to set a minimum bandwidth to be allocated to a virtual AP profile when
there is congestion on the wireless network.You must set traffic shaping to fair-access
to use this bandwidth allocation value for an individual virtual AP.
z preferred-access: High-throughput (802.11n) clients do not get penalized because of
slower 802.11a/g or 802.11b transmissions that take more air time due to lower rates.
Similarly, faster 802.11a/g clients get more access than 802.11b clients.
