rabtDot11CurrentRTSThreshold

Module: RoamAbout-MIB

OID (symbolic): RoamAbout-MIB::rabtDot11CurrentRTSThreshold

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.35.15.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: This attribute shall indicate the number of octets in an MPDU, below which an RTS/CTS handshake shall not be performed. An RTS/CTS handshake shall be performed at the beginning of any frame exchange sequence where the MPDU is of type Data or Management, the MPDU has an individual address in the Address1 field, and the length of the MPDU is greater than this threshold. (For additional details, refer to Table 21 in 9.7.) Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU size shall have the effect of turning off the RTS/CTS handshake for frames of Data or Management type transmitted by this STA. Setting this attribute to zero shall have 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 attribute shall be 2347.

What is rabtDot11CurrentRTSThreshold?

This read-only value (0-2347 octets) reports the current frame-size threshold above which the AP performs an RTS/CTS handshake before transmitting unicast data or management frames; setting it above the max frame size effectively disables RTS/CTS, and setting it to zero would enable it for all such frames. RTS/CTS helps avoid collisions in environments with hidden-node problems, at some throughput cost.
