Configuring QoS Flexible Client Access
This feature allows you to adjust client access policy in multiple steps between “packet fairness”
and “airtime fairness.”
• Packet fairness is the default 802.11 access policy. Each WLAN participant gets the same
(equal) opportunity to send packets. All WLAN clients will show the same throughput,
regardless of their PHY rate.
• Airtime fairness gives each WLAN participant the same (equal) time access. WLAN clients’
throughput will be proportional to their PHY rate.
To Define Flexible Client Access for VNS Global Settings:
1. From the top menu, click VNS Configuration. The Virtual Network Configuration screen is
displayed.
2. In the left pane, click Global, then click Wireless QoS.
3. In the Flexible Client Access area, select a policy from the Fairness Policy drop-down list.
Choices range from 100% packet fairness to 100% airtime fairness.
Note:
TSPEC must be disabled when using Flexible Client Access.
4. To save your changes, click Save.
