Configuration Using Web Based Management and the Command Line Interface
Enable iQOS
QOS is the action for Quality of Service. QOS is an application-specific configura-
tion monitoring system that you can enable by selecting the Enable QOS check
box.
Roaming in the Absence of an Ethernet Interface
If the wired Ethernet interface is no longer available (cable break, connector re-
moved), a client connected over the wireless network is not aware of this. The
SCALANCE W 788 can then force the logged on WLAN clients to roam by deacti-
vating its WLAN interface. The client then attempts to log on at a different
SCALANCE W 788. You enable this feature by selecting the Force roaming if link
down on ethernet interface check box.
