vht a-msdu max-frame-num

Function

The vht a-msdu max-frame-num command sets the maximum number of subframes that can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time.

The undo vht a-msdu max-frame-num command restores the default maximum number of subframes that can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time.

By default, a maximum of two subframes can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time.

This command does not take effect on AirEngine series APs (except the AirEngine 5760-10).

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

A-MSDU technology aggregates multiple MSDUs into an MPDU, which reduces MAC layer costs of the 802.11 packets.
  • When the wireless network quality is satisfactory, increase the maximum number of subframes that can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time to improve the network usage efficiency and wireless service performance.
  • When the wireless network quality is unsatisfactory or delay-sensitive services, such as voice services are transmitted, reduce the maximum number of subframes that can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time to minimize the impact of packet loss on services and reduce packet transmission delay. Some STAs have restrictions on the number of subframes aggregated into a received A-MSDU. If the number of subframes sent by the AP exceeds the threshold, the STAs cannot receive the frames properly.

Prerequisite

The function of sending 802.11 frames in A-MSDU mode has been enabled using the a-msdu enable command.

Precautions

The function of sending 802.11 frames in A-MSDU mode can only be enabled on the 802.11ac and 802.11ax radios.

Example

# Set the maximum number of subframes that can be aggregated into an A-MSDU at one time to 3.
