Configuring the XS-3900 83
3. Beacon World Mode: World Mode is a feature based on 802.11d. When
this feature is enabled, the XS-3900 beacons out to client devices the
correct legal set of channels and transmit power settings for the defined
country code. This feature eliminates concerns about misconfigured
client adapters because they will automatically know the correct channel
set when communicating with the XS-3900. To enable the Beacon World
Mode feature, choose Yes, or choose No to disable this feature. The
default is disabled.
4. Enable EDCF: This feature allows for enhanced packet transmissions per
IEEE 802.11e specifications and can improve throughput. Choose Yes to
enable EDCF, or choose No to disable this feature.
5. Short Retry Limit: This attribute indicates the maximum number of
transmission attempts for a frame, the length of which is less than or
equal to the RTS Threshold, before a failure condition is indicated. The
default value is 7. Enter a new value (1 to 128) in the Short Retry Limit
field if you want to increase or decrease this attribute.
6. Long Retry Limit: This attribute indicates the maximum number of
transmission attempts for a frame, the length of which is greater than the
RTS Threshold, before a failure condition is indicated. The default value
is 4. Enter a new value (1 to 128) in the Long Retry Limit field if you want
to increase or decrease this attribute.
7. Beacon Interval: When the XS-3900 sends a beacon, it includes with it a
beacon interval, which specifies the period of time before it will send the
beacon again. Enter the desired value in the Beacon Interval field,
between 20 and 1000. The value you enter here is applied to all radios.
