OID_DOT11_RTS_THRESHOLD

  • Article

This object identifier indicates the number of octets in a MAC Protocol Data Unit (MPDU), below which an RTS/CTS handshake is not performed.

An RTS/CTS handshake is performed at the beginning of any frame exchange sequence where the following are used:

  • The MPDU is of type Data or Management.
  • The MPDU has an individual address in the Address1 field.
  • The length of the MPDU is greater than this threshold.

For additional details, see Table 21 in 9.7 of IEEE Std 802.11-1997.

Setting this object identifier to be larger than the maximum MSDU size has the effect of turning off the RTS/CTS handshake for frames of Data or Management type transmitted by this STA.

Setting this object identifier to zero has the effect of turning on the RTS/CTS handshake for all frames of Data or Management type transmitted by this STA.

The default value of this object identifier is 2347.
