Product Benefit

The N300 Outdoor PoE Access Point is the point of connection to wireless outdoor networks for service providers deploying services to business or residential broadband subscribers. Network administrators can create multiple subscriber service tier using per-subscriber rate limiting features, and manage centrally.

Installation Considerations

There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.

  1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal you will lose.
  2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.
  3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.
  4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the wireless adapter's site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for your wireless devices.
  5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.

If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide the necessary coverage depending on the environment.

  • Short Slot: By default, it's "Enable" for reducing the slot time from the standard 20 microseconds to the 9 microsecond short slot time. Slot time is the amount of time a device waits after a collision before retransmitting a packet. Reducing the slot time decreases the overall back-off, which increases throughput. Back-off, which is a multiple of the slot time, is the random length of time a station waits before sending a packet on the LAN. For a sender and receiver own right of the channel the shorter slot time help manage shorter wait time to re-transmit from collision because of hidden wireless clients or other causes. When collision sources can be removed sooner and other senders attempting to send are listening to the channel (CSMA/CA) the owner of the channel should continue ownership and finish their transmission and release the channel. Then, following ownership of the channel will be sooner for the new pair due to shorter slot time. However, when long duration of existing collision sources and shorter slot time exist the owners might experience subsequent collisions. When adjustment to longer slot time can't improve performance then RTS/CTS could supplement and help improve performance.
  • ACK Timeout: ACK timeout is in the range of 1\~255 and set in unit of microsecond. The default value is 32 microsecond. All data transmission in 802.11b/g request an "Acknowledgement" (ACK) send by receiving radio. The transmitter will resend the original packet if correspondent ACK failed to arrive within specific time interval, also refer to as "ACK Timeout".

ACK Timeout is adjustable due to the fact that distance between two radio links may vary in different deployment. ACK Timeout makes significant influence in performance of long distance radio link. If ACK Timeout is set too short, transmitter

will start to "Resend" packet before ACK is received, and throughputs become low due to excessively high re-transmission. ACK Timeout is best determined by distance between the radios, data rate of average environment. The Timeout value is calculated based on round-trip time of packet with a little tolerance, so, if experiencing re-transmissions or poor performance the ACK Timeout could be made longer to accommodate.

- Beacon Interval: Beacon Interval is in the range of 20\~1024 and set in unit of millisecond. The default value is 100 msec.

Access Point (AP) in IEEE 802.11 will send out a special approximated 50-byte frame, called "Beacon". Beacon is broadcast to all the stations, provides the basic information of AP such as SSID, channel, encryption keys, signal strength, time stamp, support data rate.

All the radio stations received beacon recognizes the existence of such AP, and may proceed next actions if the information from AP matches the requirement. Beacon is sent on a periodic basis, the time interval can be adjusted.

By increasing the beacon interval, you can reduce the number of beacons and associated overhead, but that will likely delay the association and roaming process because stations scanning for available access points may miss the beacons. You can decrease the beacon interval, which increases the rate of beacons. This will make the association and roaming process very responsive; however, the network will incur additional overhead and throughput will go down.

  • DTIM Interval: The DTIM interval is in the range of 1\~255. The default is 1.
    DTIM is defined as Delivery Traffic Indication Message. It is used to notify the wireless stations, which support power saving mode, when to wake up to receive multicast frame. DTIM is necessary and critical in wireless environment as a mechanism to fulfill power-saving synchronization. A DTIM interval is a count of the number of beacon frames that must occur before the access point sends the buffered multicast frames. For instance, if DTIM Interval is set to 3, then the Wi-Fi clients will expect to receive a multicast frame after receiving three Beacon frame. The higher DTIM interval will help power saving and possibly decrease wireless throughput in multicast applications.
  • RTS Threshold: TRTS Threshold is in the range of 1\~2347 byte. The default is 2347 byte. The main purpose of enabling RTS by changing RTS threshold is to reduce possible collisions due to hidden wireless clients. RTS in AP will be enabled automatically if the packet size is larger than the Threshold value. By default, RTS is disabled in a normal environment supports non-jumbo frames.
  • Short Preamble: By default, it's "Enable". To Disable is to use Long 128-bit Preamble

Synchronization field. The preamble is used to signal "here is a train of data coming" to the receiver. The short preamble provides 72-bit Synchronization field to improve WLAN transmission efficiency with less overhead.

- WMM: By default, it's "Enabled".

Wireless WMM QoS Setup

QueueData Transmitted AP to ClientsPriorityDescription
AC_BKBackground.LowHigh throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this
queue (FTP data, for example).
AC_BEBest EffortMediumMedium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue
AC_VIVideo HighMinimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue
AC_VOVoiceHighTime-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue

Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each queue based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort parameters for traditional IP data.

As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are less time-sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.

  • Aifsn: The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames
  • CWmin: Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm that determines the initial random back-off wait time ("window") for retry of a transmission. The value specified here in the Minimum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined.
    CWmax: Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. This doubling continues until either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number of retries allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1024. The value for "cwmax" must be higher than the value for "cwmin".
  • Txop: Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a WME AP has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM). This value specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) for AP; that is, the

interval of time when the WMM AP has the right to initiate transmissions on the wireless network.

  • ACM: Admission Control Mandatory, ACM only takes effect on AC_VI and AC_VO. When you do not click Checkbox, it means that the ACM is controlled by the connecting AP. If you click Checkbox, it means that the Client is in charge.
  • AckPolicy: Acknowledgment Policy, WMM defines two ACK policies: Normal ACK and No ACK. Click "Checkbox" indicates "No ACK"

AC_VIVideoHighMinimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue
AC_VOVoiceHighTime-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue

When the no acknowledgment (No ACK) policy is used, the recipient does not acknowledge received packets during wireless packet exchange. This policy is suitable in the environment where communication quality is fine and interference is weak. While the No ACK policy helps improve transmission efficiency, it can cause increased packet loss when communication quality deteriorates. This is because when this policy is used, a sender does not retransmit packets that have not been received by the recipient. When the Normal ACK policy is used, the recipient acknowledges each received unicast packet.

  • WMM Parameters of Station: This affects traffic flowing from the client station to the access point.

Wireless Advanced Setup

To achieve optimal wireless performance, it is necessary to tweak advance setting per requirements properly, not necessary higher the better or lower. The administrator can change the RTS threshold and fragmentation threshold settings for the system. Please click on Wireless -> Advanced Setup and follow the below setting.

Advanced Setup Slot Time 9 Distance ACK Timeout 64 Beacon Interval 100 DTIM Interval 1 RTS Threshlod 2346 Short Preamble Enable Disable IGMP Snooping Enable Disable Greenfield Enable Disable WMM Enable Disable

- Short Slot: By default, it's "Enable" for reducing the slot time from the standard 20 microseconds to the 9 microsecond short slot time. Slot time is the amount of time a device waits after a collision before retransmitting a packet. Reducing the slot time decreases the overall back-off, which increases throughput. Back-off, which is a multiple of the slot time, is the random length of time a station waits before sending a packet on the LAN. For a sender and receiver own right of the channel the shorter slot time help manage shorter wait time to re-transmit from collision because of hidden wireless clients or other causes. When collision sources can be removed sooner and other senders attempting to send are listening the channel

TRENDnet User's Guide

TEW-739APBO

(CSMA/CA) the owner of the channel should continue ownership and finish their transmission and release the channel. Then, following ownership of the channel will be sooner for the new pair due to shorter slot time. However, when long duration of existing collision sources and shorter slot time exist the owners might experience subsequent collisions. When adjustment to longer slot time can't improve performance then RTS/CTS could supplement and help improve performance.

- ACK Timeout: ACK timeout is in the range of 1\~255 and set in unit of microsecond. The default value is 32 microsecond. All data transmission in 802.11b/g request an "Acknowledgement" (ACK) send by receiving radio. The transmitter will resend the original packet if correspondent ACK failed to arrive within specific time interval, also refer to as "ACK Timeout".

ACK Timeout is adjustable due to the fact that distance between two radio links may vary in different deployment. ACK Timeout makes significant influence in performance of long distance radio link. If ACK Timeout is set too short, transmitter will start to "Resend" packet before ACK is received, and throughputs become low due to excessively high re-transmission. ACK Timeout is best determined by distance between the radios, data rate of average environment. The Timeout value is calculated based on round-trip time of packet with a little tolerance, So, if experiencing re-transmissions or poor performance the ACK Timeout could be made longer to accommodate.

- Beacon Interval:: Beacon Interval is in the range of 20\~1024 and set in unit of millisecond. The default value is 100 msec.

Access Point (AP) in IEEE 802.11 will send out a special approximated 50-byte frame, called "Beacon". Beacon is broadcast to all the stations, provides the basic information of AP such as SSID, channel, encryption keys, signal strength, time stamp, support data rate.

All the radio stations received beacon recognizes the existence of such AP, and may proceed next actions if the information from AP matches the requirement. Beacon is sent on a periodic basis, the time interval can be adjusted.

By increasing the beacon interval, you can reduce the number of beacons and associated overhead, but that will likely delay the association and roaming process because stations scanning for available access points may miss the beacons. You can decrease the beacon interval, which increases the rate of beacons. This will make the association and roaming process very responsive; however, the network will incur additional overhead and throughput will go down.

- DTIM Interval: The DTIM interval is in the range of 1\~255. The default is 1. DTIM is defined as Delivery Traffic Indication Message. It is used to notify the

wireless stations, which support power saving mode, when to wake up to receive multicast frame. DTIM is necessary and critical in wireless environment as a mechanism to fulfill power-saving synchronization. A DTIM interval is a count of the number of beacon frames that must occur before the access point sends the buffered multicast frames. For instance, if DTIM Interval is set to 3, then the Wi-Fi clients will expect to receive a multicast frame after receiving three Beacon frame. The higher DTIM interval will help power saving and possibly decrease wireless throughput in multicast applications.

  • RTS Threshold: TRTS Threshold is in the range of 1\~2347 byte. The default is 2347 byte. The main purpose of enabling RTS by changing RTS threshold is to reduce possible collisions due to hidden wireless clients. RTS in AP will be enabled automatically if the packet size is larger than the Threshold value. By default, RTS is disabled in a normal environment supports non-jumbo frames.
  • Short Preamble: By default, it's "Enable". To Disable is to use Long 128-bit Preamble Synchronization field. The preamble is used to signal "here is a train of data coming" to the receiver. The short preamble provides 72-bit Synchronization field to improve WLAN transmission efficiency with less overhead.
  • WMM: By default, it's "Enabled".

AC_VOVoiceHighTime-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue

Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each queue based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort

parameters for traditional IP data.

As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are less time-sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.

  • Aifsn: The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames
  • CWmin: Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm that determines the initial random back-off wait time ("window") for retry of a transmission. The value specified here in the Minimum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined.
    CWmax: Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. This doubling continues until either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number of retries allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1024. The value for "cwmax" must be higher than the value for "cwmin".
  • Txop: Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a WME AP has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM). This value specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) for AP; that is, the interval of time when the WMM AP has the right to initiate transmissions on the wireless network.
  • ACM: Admission Control Mandatory, ACM only takes effect on AC_VI and AC_VO. When you do not click Checkbox, it means that the ACM is controlled by the connecting AP. If you click Checkbox, it means that the Client is in charge.

When the no acknowledgment (No ACK) policy is used, the recipient does not acknowledge received packets during wireless packet exchange. This policy is suitable in the environment where communication quality is fine and interference is weak. While the No ACK policy helps improve transmission efficiency, it can cause increased packet loss when communication quality deteriorates. This is because when this policy is used, a sender does not retransmit packets that have not been received by the recipient. When the Normal ACK policy is used, the recipient acknowledges each received unicast packet.

  • Short Slot: By default, it's "Enable" for reducing the slot time from the standard 20 microseconds to the 9 microsecond short slot time. Slot time is the amount of time a device waits after a collision before retransmitting a packet. Reducing the slot time decreases the overall back-off, which increases throughput. Back-off, which is a multiple of the slot time, is the random length of time a station waits before sending a packet on the LAN. For a sender and receiver own right of the channel the shorter slot time help manage shorter wait time to re-transmit from collision because of hidden wireless clients or other causes. When collision sources can be removed sooner and other senders attempting to send are listening the channel (CSMA/CA) the owner of the channel should continue ownership and finish their transmission and release the channel. Then, following ownership of the channel will be sooner for the new pair due to shorter slot time. However, when long duration of existing collision sources and shorter slot time exist the owners might experience subsequent collisions. When adjustment to longer slot time can't improve performance then RTS/CTS could supplement and help improve performance.
  • ACK Timeout: ACK timeout is in the range of 1\~255 and set in unit of microsecond. The default value is 32 microsecond. All data transmission in 802.11b/g request an "Acknowledgement" (ACK) send by receiving radio. The transmitter will resend the original packet if correspondent ACK failed to arrive within specific time interval, also refer to as "ACK Timeout".

ACK Timeout is adjustable due to the fact that distance between two radio links may vary in different deployment. ACK Timeout makes significant influence in performance of long distance radio link. If ACK Timeout is set too short, transmitter

will start to "Resend" packet before ACK is received, and throughputs become low due to excessively high re-transmission. ACK Timeout is best determined by distance between the radios, data rate of average environment. The Timeout value is calculated based on round-trip time of packet with a little tolerance, So, if experiencing re-transmissions or poor performance the ACK Timeout could be made longer to accommodate.

- Beacon Interval:: Beacon Interval is in the range of 20\~1024 and set in unit of millisecond. The default value is 100 msec.

Access Point (AP) in IEEE 802.11 will send out a special approximated 50-byte frame, called "Beacon". Beacon is broadcast to all the stations, provides the basic information of AP such as SSID, channel, encryption keys, signal strength, time stamp, support data rate.

All the radio stations received beacon recognizes the existence of such AP, and may proceed next actions if the information from AP matches the requirement. Beacon is sent on a periodic basis, the time interval can be adjusted.

By increasing the beacon interval, you can reduce the number of beacons and associated overhead, but that will likely delay the association and roaming process because stations scanning for available access points may miss the beacons. You can decrease the beacon interval, which increases the rate of beacons. This will make the association and roaming process very responsive; however, the network will incur additional overhead and throughput will go down.

- DTIM Interval: The DTIM interval is in the range of 1\~255. The default is 1. DTIM is defined as Delivery Traffic Indication Message. It is used to notify the wireless stations, which support power saving mode, when to wake up to receive multicast frame. DTIM is necessary and critical in wireless environment as a mechanism to fulfill power-saving synchronization. A DTIM interval is a count of the number of beacon frames that must occur before the access point sends the buffered multicast frames. For instance, if DTIM Interval is set to 3, then the Wi-Fi clients will expect to receive a multicast frame after receiving three Beacon frame. The higher DTIM interval will help power saving and possibly decrease wireless throughput in multicast applications.

- RTS Threshold: TRTS Threshold is in the range of 1\~2347 byte. The default is 2347 byte. The main purpose of enabling RTS by changing RTS threshold is to reduce possible collisions due to hidden wireless clients. RTS in AP will be enabled automatically if the packet size is larger than the Threshold value. By default, RTS is disabled in a normal environment supports non-jumbo frames.

- Short Preamble: By default, it's "Enable". To Disable is to use Long 128-bit Preamble

Synchronization field. The preamble is used to signal "here is a train of data coming" to the receiver. The short preamble provides 72-bit Synchronization field to improve WLAN transmission efficiency with less overhead.

QueueData Transmitted AP to ClientsPriorityDescription
AC_BKBackground.LowHigh throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example).
AC_BEBest EffortMediumMedium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue
AC_VIVideo HighMinimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue
AC_VOVoiceHighTime-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue

Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each queue based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort parameters for traditional IP data.

As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are less time-sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.

  • Aifsn: The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames
    CWmin: Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm that determines the initial random back-off wait time ("window") for retry of a transmission. The value specified here in the Minimum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined.
    CWmax: Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. This doubling continues until either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number of retries allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1024. The value for "cwmax" must be higher than the value for "cwmin".
  • Txop: Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a WME AP has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM). This value specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) for AP; that is, the interval of time when the WMM AP has the right to initiate transmissions on the wireless network.
  • ACM: Admission Control Mandatory, ACM only takes effect on AC_VI and AC_VO. When you do not click Checkbox, it means that the ACM is controlled by the connecting AP. If you click Checkbox, it means that the Client is in charge.
  • AckPolicy: Acknowledgment Policy, WMM defines two ACK policies: Normal ACK and No ACK. Click "Checkbox" indicates "No ACK"

When the no acknowledgment (No ACK) policy is used, the recipient does not acknowledge received packets during wireless packet exchange. This policy is suitable in the environment where communication quality is fine and interference is weak. While the No ACK policy helps improve transmission efficiency, it can cause increased packet loss when communication quality deteriorates. This is because when this policy is used, a sender does not retransmit packets that have not been received by the recipient. When the Normal ACK policy is used, the recipient acknowledges each received unicast packet.

Wireless Advanced Setup

To achieve optimal wireless performance, it is necessary to tweak advance setting per requirements properly, not necessary higher the better or lower.

The administrator can change the RTS threshold and fragmentation threshold settings for the system. Please click on Wireless -> Advanced Setup and follow the below setting.

Advanced Setup Slot Time 9 Distance ACK Timeout 64 Beacon Interval 100 DTIM Interval 1 RTS Threshiod 2346 Short Preamble Enable Disable IGMP Snooping Enable Disable Greenfield Enable Disable WMN Enable Disable

  • Short Slot : By default, it's "Enable" for reducing the slot time from the standard 20 microseconds to the 9 microsecond short slot time. Slot time is the amount of time a device waits after a collision before retransmitting a packet. Reducing the slot time decreases the overall back-off, which increases throughput. Back-off, which is a multiple of the slot time, is the random length of time a station waits before sending a packet on the LAN. For a sender and receiver own right of the channel the shorter slot time help manage shorter wait time to re-transmit from collision because of hidden wireless clients or other causes. When collision sources can be removed sooner and other senders attempting to send are listening the channel(CSMA/CA) the owner of the channel should continue ownership and finish their transmission and release the channel. Then, following ownership of the channel will be sooner for the new pair due to shorter slot time. However, when long duration of existing collision sources and shorter slot time exist the owners might experience subsequent collisions. When adjustment to longer slot time can't improve performance then RTS/CTS could supplement and help improve performance.
  • ACK Timeout: ACK timeout is in the range of 1\~255 and set in unit of microsecond. The default value is 32 microsecond. All data transmission in 802.11b/g request an "Acknowledgement" (ACK) send by receiving radio. The transmitter will resend the original packet if correspondent ACK failed to arrive within specific time interval, also refer to as "ACK Timeout".

ACK Timeout is adjustable due to the fact that distance between two radio links may vary in different deployment. ACK Timeout makes significant influence in

TRENDnet User's Guide

TEW-739APBO

performance of long distance radio link. If ACK Timeout is set too short, transmitter will start to "Resend" packet before ACK is received, and throughputs become low due to excessively high re-transmission. ACK Timeout is best determined by distance between the radios, data rate of average environment. The Timeout value is calculated based on round-trip time of packet with a little tolerance, So, if experiencing re-transmissions or poor performance the ACK Timeout could be made longer to accommodate.

- Beacon Interval:: Beacon Interval is in the range of 20\~1024 and set in unit of millisecond. The default value is 100 msec.

Access Point (AP) in IEEE 802.11 will send out a special approximated 50-byte frame, called "Beacon". Beacon is broadcast to all the stations, provides the basic information of AP such as SSID, channel, encryption keys, signal strength, time stamp, support data rate.

All the radio stations received beacon recognizes the existence of such AP, and may proceed next actions if the information from AP matches the requirement. Beacon is sent on a periodic basis, the time interval can be adjusted.

By increasing the beacon interval, you can reduce the number of beacons and associated overhead, but that will likely delay the association and roaming process because stations scanning for available access points may miss the beacons. You can decrease the beacon interval, which increases the rate of beacons. This will make the association and roaming process very responsive; however, the network will incur additional overhead and throughput will go down.

- DTIM Interval: The DTIM interval is in the range of 1\~255. The default is 1.

DTIM is defined as Delivery Traffic Indication Message. It is used to notify the wireless stations, which support power saving mode, when to wake up to receive multicast frame. DTIM is necessary and critical in wireless environment as a mechanism to fulfill power-saving synchronization. A DTIM interval is a count of the number of beacon frames that must occur before the access point sends the buffered multicast frames. For instance, if DTIM Interval is set to 3, then the Wi-Fi clients will expect to receive a multicast frame after receiving three Beacon frame. The higher DTIM interval will help power saving and possibly decrease wireless throughput in multicast applications.

- RTS Threshold: TRTS Threshold is in the range of 1\~2347 byte. The default is 2347 byte. The main purpose of enabling RTS by changing RTS threshold is to reduce possible collisions due to hidden wireless clients. RTS in AP will be enabled automatically if the packet size is larger than the Threshold value. By default, RTS is disabled in a normal environment supports non-jumbo frames.

  • Short Preamble: By default, it's "Enable". To Disable is to use Long 128-bit Preamble Synchronization field. The preamble is used to signal "here is a train of data coming" to the receiver. The short preamble provides 72-bit Synchronization field to improve WLAN transmission efficiency with less overhead.
    • WMM: By default, it's "Enabled".

AC_VOVoiceHighTime-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue

Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless traffic. You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each queue based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort parameters for traditional IP data.

As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for transmission (lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are less time-sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.

  • Aifsn: The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames
    CWmin: Minimum Contention Window. This parameter is input to the algorithm that determines the initial random back-off wait time ("window") for retry of a transmission. The value specified here in the Minimum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back-off wait time is determined.
    CWmax: Maximum Contention Window. The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. This doubling continues until either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached. Once the Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a maximum number of retries allowed is reached. Valid values for the "cwmax" are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1024. The value for "cwmax" must be higher than the value for "cwmin".
  • Txop: Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a WME AP has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM). This value specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) for AP; that is, the interval of time when the WMM AP has the right to initiate transmissions on the wireless network.
  • ACM: Admission Control Mandatory, ACM only takes effect on AC_VI and AC_VO. When you do not click Checkbox, it means that the ACM is controlled by the connecting AP. If you click Checkbox, it means that the Client is in charge.
  • AckPolicy: Acknowledgment Policy, WMM defines two ACK policies: Normal ACK and No ACK. Click "Checkbox" indicates "No ACK"

When the no acknowledgment (No ACK) policy is used, the recipient does not acknowledge received packets during wireless packet exchange. This policy is suitable in the environment where communication quality is fine and interference is weak. While the No ACK policy helps improve transmission efficiency, it can cause increased packet loss when communication quality deteriorates. This is because when this policy is used, a sender does not retransmit packets that have not been received by the recipient. When the Normal ACK policy is used, the recipient acknowledges each received unicast packet.

Access Control

DMZ

DMZ is commonly work with the NAT functionality as an alternative of Virtual Server(Port Forwarding) while wanting all ports of DMZ host visible to Internet users. Virtual Server rules have precedence over the DMZ rule. In order to use a range of ports available to access to different internal hosts Virtual Server rules are needed.

DMZ Service Automatic Assignment Internal IP Address

  • DMZ: By default, it's "Disable". Check Enable radial button to enable DMZ.
  • IP Address: Enter IP address of DMZ host and only one DMZ host is supported.

IP Filter Setup

Allows to create deny or allow rules to filter ingress or egress packets from specific source and/or to destination IP address on wired (LAN) or Wireless (WAN) ports. Filter rules could be used to filter unicast or multicast packets on different protocols as shown in the IP Filter Setup. Important to note that IP filter rules has precedence over Virtual server rules.

Please click on Advance -> IP Filter Setup and follow the below setting.

IP Rules Source Address/Mask Source Port Destination Address/Mask Destination Port In/Out ● In ● Out Protocol ALL Policy ● Deny ● Pass Interface ALL Schedule Always Run

  • Source Address/Mask: Enter desired source IP address and netmask; i.e. 192.168.2.10/32.
  • Source Port: Enter a port or a range of ports as start:end; i.e. port 20:80
  • Destination Address/Mask: Enter desired destination IP address and netmask; i.e. 192.168.1.10/32
  • Destination Port: Enter a port or a range of ports as start:end; i.e. port 20:80
    • In/Out: Applies to Ingress or egress packets
    • Protocol: Supports TCP, UDP or ICMP.
  • Listen: Click Yes radial button to match TCP packets only with the SYN flag.
    • Active: Deny to drop and Pass to allow per filter rules
    • Interface: The interface that a filter rule applies

Click "Save" button to add IP filter rule. Total of 20 rules maximum allowed in the IP Filter List. All rules can be edited or removed from the List. Click Reboot button to activate your changes.

When you create rules in the IP Filter List, the prior rules maintain higher priority. To allow limited access from a subnet to a destination network manager needs to create allow rules first and followed by deny rules. So, if you just want one IP address to access the system via telnet from your subnet, not others, the Example 1 demonstrates it, not rules in the Example 2.

Example 1 : Create a higher priority rule to allow IP address 192.168.2.2 Telnet access from LAN port first, and deny Telnet access from remaining IP addresses in the same subnet.
Example 2: All Telnet access to the system from the IP addresses of subnet 192.168.2.x works with the rule 1 of Example 2. The rule 2 won't make any difference.

MAC Filter Setup

Create MAC filter rules to allow or deny unicast or multicast packets from limited number of MAC addresses. Note that MAC filter rules have precedence over IP Filter rules.

Please click on Advance -> MAC Filter Setup and follow the below setting.

Virtual Server

"Virtual Server" can also referred to as "Port Forward" as well and used interchangeably. Resources in the network can be exposed to the Internet users in a controlled manner including on-line gaming, video conferencing or others via Virtual Server setup. Don't repeat ports' usage to avoid confusion.

Suppose you want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (A in the example), and port 80 to another (B in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses and the ISP assigns the WAN IP address. The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet.

Virtual Server Service ● Enabled ● Disabled Description Private IP Protocol Type ● TCP ● UDP Private Port Public Port Schedule Always Run

  • Virtual Server: By Default, It's "Disable". Check Enable radial button to enable Virtual Server.
    • Description: Enter appropriate message for resource sharing via Virtual Server.
  • Private IP: Enter corresponding IP address of internal resource to share.
  • Protocol Type: Select appropriate sessions, TCP or UDP, from shared host via

multiple private ports.

  • Private Port: A port or a range of ports may be specified as start:end; i.e. port 20:80
  • Public Port: A port or a range of ports may be specified as start:end; i.e. port 20:80. Click "Add" button to add Virtual Server rule to List. Total of maximum 20 rules are allowed in this List. All rules can be edited or removed from the List. Click Reboot button to activate your changes.

While creating multiple Virtual Server rules, the prior rules have higher priority. The Virtual server rules have precedence over the DMZ one while both rules exist. Example 1 and 2 demonstrate proper usage of DMZ and Virtual Server rules.

  • Example 1: All connections should be redirected to 192.168.2.12 while DMZ is enabled. Since Virtual Server rules have precedence over the DMZ rule all connections to TCP port 22 will be directed to TCP port 22 of 192.168.2.10 and remaining connections to port TCP 20\~80 will be redirected to port TCP 20\~80 of 192.168.2.11
  • Example 2: All connections should be redirected to 192.168.2.12 while DMZ is enabled. Since Virtual Server rules have precedence over the DMZ rule all other connections to TCP port 20\~80 will be redirected to port 20\~80 of 192.168.2.11. The rule 2 won't take effect.

- Ping Watchdog: The ping watchdog sets the TEW-739APBO Device to continuously ping a user defined IP address (it can be the internet gateway for example). If it is unable to ping under the user defined constraints, the TEW-739APBO device will automatically reboot. This option creates a kind of "fail-proof" mechanism.

Ping Watchdog is dedicated for continuous monitoring of the particular connection to remote host using the Ping tool. The Ping works by sending ICMP "echo request" packets to the target host and listening for ICMP "echo response" replies. If the defined number of replies is not received, the tool reboots the device.

- Startup Delay: specify initial time delay (in seconds) until first ICMP "echo requests" are sent by the Ping Watchdog Tool. The value of Startup Delay should be at least 60 seconds as the network interface and wireless connection initialization takes considerable amount of time if the device is rebooted. Default is 300 seconds.
o Failure Count To Reboot: specify the number of ICMP "echo response" replies. If the specified number of ICMP "echo response" packets is not received continuously, the Ping Watchdog Tool will reboot the device.
