Wi-Fi Array
280 Configuring the Wi-Fi Array
SSIDs — SSID Management window also has a station limit option —
Station Limit (page 253). If both station limits are set, both will be
enforced. As soon as either limit is reached, no new stations can associate
until some other station has terminated its association.
12. Max Phones per IAP: This option allows you to control the maximum
number of phones that are allowed per IAP. The default is set to a
maximum of 16 but you can reduce this number, as desired. Enter a value
in this field between 0 (no phones allowed) and 16.
13. Block Intra-Station Traffic: This option allows you to block or allow
traffic between wireless clients that are associated to the Array. Choose
either Yes (to block traffic) or No (to allow traffic).
14. Allow Over Air Management: Choose Yes to enable management of the
Array via the IAPs, or choose No (recommended) to disable this feature.
Advanced Traffic Optimization
15. Multicast Processing: This sets how multicast traffic is handled.
Multicast traffic can be received by a number of subscribing stations at
the same time, thus saving a great deal of bandwidth. In some of the
options below, the Array uses IGMP snooping to determine the stations
that are subscribed to the multicast traffic. IGMP (Internet Group
Management Protocol) is used to establish and manage the membership
of multicast groups.
Select one of the following options:
• Send multicasts unmodified.
• Convert to unicast and send unicast packets to all stations.
• Convert to unicast, snoop IGMP, and only send to stations
subscribed (send as multicast if no subscription).
• Convert to unicast, snoop IGMP, and only send to stations
subscribed (don't send packet if no subscription).
