vii. WMM
Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification
based on the IEEE 802.11e standard, which provides Quality of Service (QoS)
features to IEE 802.11 networks. WMM prioritizes traffic according to four
categories: background, best effort, video and voice.
Configuring WMM consists of adjusting parameters on queues for different
categories of wireless traffic. Traffic is sent to the following queues:
High throughput, non time sensitive bulk data e.g.
FTP
Traditional IP data, medium throughput and delay.
Time sensitive video data with minimum time
delay.
Time sensitive data such as VoIP and streaming
media with minimum time delay.
