Maximum Burst The Maximum Burst is an AP EDCA parameter that applies only to
traffic flowing from the EAP devices to the client station. This value
specifies (in milliseconds) the maximum burst length allowed for
packet bursts on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection
of multiple frames transmitted without header information. The
decreased overhead results in higher throughput and better
performance.
The valid values are multiples of 32 between 0 and 8192.
5.5.2 Station EDCA Parameters
Station EDCA parameters affect traffic flowing from the client station to the EAP device.

Queue
Queue displays the transmission queue. By default, the priority
from high to low is Data 0, Data 1, Data 2, and Data 3. The priority
may be changed if you reset the EDCA parameters.
Data 0 (Voice)Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-
sensitive data such as VoIP and streaming media are automatically
sent to this queue.
Data 1 (Video)High priority queue, minimum delay. Time-
sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue.
Data 2 (Best Effort)Medium priority queue, medium throughput
and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue.
Data 3 (Background)Lowest priority queue, high throughput.
Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-
sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example).
Arbitration Inter-
Frame Space
A wait time for data frames. The wait time is measured in slots. Valid
values for Arbitration Inter-Frame Space are from 0 to 15.
