Field Description
Request to Send
(RTS) Threshold
The packet size that is used to determine whether to use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense
Multiple Access with Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA mechanism for
packet transmission. With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting
station sends out the actual packet as soon as it has waited for the silence period. With
the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS
packet to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS
(Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data.
Fragmentation
Length
This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size
programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment Threshold value must be
larger than the RTS Threshold value.
Default: 2346
Beacon Interval Specifies the data beacon rate between 20 and 3000.
