Custom—Enables you to choose custom EDCA parameters.
These four queues are defined for different types of data transmitted from WAP-to-station. If
you choose a Custom template, the parameters that define the queues are configurable;
otherwise, they are set to predefined values appropriate to your selection. The four queues are:

Data 3 (Background)—Lowest priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that requires
maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for
example).

STEP 3
Configure the following EDCA and Station EDCA parameters:

These parameters are configurable only if you selected Custom in the previous
step.

Arbitration Inter-Frame Space—A wait time for data frames. The wait time is measured
in slots. Valid values for AIFS are 1 through 255.
