WISPr-Bandwidth-Max-Up and WISPr-Bandwidth-Max-Down that are used by 802.1X-authenticated wireless clients to

supply the necessary rate limiting information to the AP.

Similar bandwidth maximum up and down rate limit parameters are included in the wireless network configuration to be used

for clients without valid RADIUS attributes of their own. These values are not enforced for the network as a whole, but are

defined as per-client defaults. A Rate Limiting global configuration parameter provides the master control for AP Client rate

limit enforcement of wireless clients.

The Rate Limiting operation occurs in either managed or standalone mode. A WS–managed AP receives its QoS

configuration from the WS and proceeds to set up the necessary facilities in the AP software. A standalone AP uses its own

user interface (Web, CLI) or SNMP MIB to configure similar AP Client QoS parameters as the WS in order to perform

comparable AP software operation.

For RADIUS exchanges, the AP acts as a Network Authentication Server (NAS). The two new RADIUS attributes defined

for rate limiting, WISPr-Bandwidth-Max-Up and WISPr-Bandwidth-Max-Down are described below in Table 46.

To access the associated client QoS information, click Monitoring > Client > Associated Clients > Status tab > Client

QoS.

Table 47 describes the information available on the Associated Client QoS Status page.

Table 46: Associated Client QoS Status

Field Description

MAC Address The Ethernet address of client station.

Actuals

RADIUS (Cached)

Use the selector to determine the source of the information the

page displays:

• Select Actuals to display the actual status parameters configured

on the AP.

• Select RADIUS (Cached) to display any client QoS parameters

that were obtained for the client from a RADIUS server when

using 802.1X authentication.

Client QoS Operational Status Displays whether QoS is enforced for the client.
