Parameter Description
Beacon Interval Interval for sending Beacon frames, specified in the radio profile.
An AP sends Beacon frames periodically to state the presence of a
wireless network.
The value ranges from 100 tu to 1000 tu (1 tu = 1024
microseconds). The default value is 100 tu.
Data Beacon Rate
(DTIM)
Interval for generating delivery traffic indication messages
(DTIMs), specified in the radio profile.
A DTIM informs the stations (STAs) about the presence of buffered
multicast/broadcast data on the AP.
This parameter is mandatory for the stations that use the
energy-saving function.
z
A small DTIM interval will result in frequent use of stations that
are working in energy-saving mode. As a result, more power is
consumed.
z
A greater DTIM interval helps reduce power consumption of the
stations that are working in energy-saving mode but it delays the
transmission of broadcast and multicast frames.
The value ranges from 1 to 255 beacons. The default value is 1
beacon.
