dot11DTIMPeriod
Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11DTIMPeriod
OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.13
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This attribute shall specify the number of beacon intervals that shall elapse between transmission of Beacons frames containing a TIM element whose DTIM Count field is 0. This value is transmitted in the DTIM Period field of Beacon frames.
What is dot11DTIMPeriod?
This object configures how frequently a wireless access point sends beacon frames containing a DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Map) element with a count of zero. The DTIM period tells sleeping clients when to wake up to check for buffered broadcast and multicast traffic, allowing operators to balance power savings with timely delivery of network announcements.
