Configuring WLANs
The WLAN QoS level defines a specific 802.11e user priority (UP) for over-the-air traffic. This UP is
used to derive the over-the-wire priorities for non-WMM traffic, and it also acts as the ceiling when
managing WMM traffic with various levels of priorities. The access point uses this QoS-profile-specific
UP in accordance with the values in Table 6-1 to derive the IP DSCP value that is visible on the wired
LAN.
You can assign a QoS profile to a WLAN using the controller GUI or CLI.
Using the GUI to Assign a QoS Profile to a WLAN
Using the controller GUI, follow these steps to assign a QoS profile to a WLAN.
Step 1 If you have not already done so, configure one or more QoS profiles using the instructions in the “Using
the GUI to Configure QoS Profiles” section on page 4-45.
Step 2 Click WLANs to open the WLANs page.
Step 3 Click the ID number of the WLAN to which you want to assign a QoS profile.
Step 4 When the WLANs > Edit page appears, click the QoS tab.
Step 5 From the Quality of Service (QoS) drop-down box, choose one of the following:
• Platinum (voice)
• Gold (video)
• Silver (best effort)
• Bronze (background)
Note Silver (best effort) is the default value.
