Configure Basic Wireless Quality of Service

Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to 
have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such 
as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, 
wireless clients also need to support WMM.

By enabling WMM, you allow Quality of Service (QoS) control for upstream traffic flowing 
from a wireless station to the wireless access point and for downstream traffic flowing from 
the wireless access point to a wireless station.

WMM defines the following four queues in decreasing order of priority:

Voice. The highest priority queue with minimum delay, which makes it ideal for 

applications like VoIP and streaming media.

Video. The second highest priority queue with low delay is given to this queue. Video 

applications are routed to this queue.

Best Effort. The medium priority queue with medium delay is given to this queue. Most 

standard IP application use this queue.

Background. Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications, such as FTP, that 

are not time-sensitive but require high throughput can use this queue.

The WMM Powersave feature saves power for battery-powered equipment by increasing the 
efficiency and flexibility of data transmission.

For information about how to configure advanced wireless QoS, that 

is, to configure specific Enhanced Distributed Channel Access 
(EDCA) settings, see
