ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide 1999
configure rf-profile long-retry
configure rf-profile <name> long-retry <value>
Description
Specifies the number of transmission attempts of a frame larger than the request-to-send (RTS)
threshold.
Syntax Description
Default
7.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to set the number of transmission attempts for frames larger than the RTS threshold
setting in the same RF profile. The
long-retry value specifies the number of attempts before a frame
will be discarded when a station attempts to retransmit a frame. Long retry applies to frames longer
than the RTS threshold and it is set to 7 by default. A frame requiring RTS/CTS clearing is
retransmitted seven times before being discarded.
To specify a the number of transmission attempts of a frame smaller than the RTS threshold, use the
following command:
configure rf-profile <name> short-retry <value>
Examples
The following command sets the transmission attempts to 10:
configure rf-profile rfprof1 long-retry 10
