config Commands

This section lists the config commands to configure VideoStream settings on the controller.

config 802.11 cac video acm

To enable or disable video Call Admission Control (CAC) for the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network, use the config 802.11 cac video acm command.

config 802.11{ a | b} cac video acm { enable | disable}

Syntax Description

a

Specifies the 802.11a network.

b

Specifies the 802.11b/g network.

enable

Enables video CAC settings.

disable

Disables video CAC settings.

Command Default

The default video CAC settings for the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network is disabled.

Usage Guidelines

CAC commands require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Platinum.

Before you can configure CAC parameters on a network, you must complete the following prerequisites:

  • Disable all WLANs with WMM enabled by entering the config wlan disable wlan_id command.

  • Disable the radio network you want to configure by entering the config 802.11{a | b} disable network command.

  • Save the new configuration by entering the save config command.

  • Enable voice or video CAC for the network you want to configure by entering the config 802.11{a | b} cac voice acm enable, or config 802.11{a | b} cac video acm enable commands.

Command History

Release Modification
8.3 This command was introduced.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the video CAC for the 802.11a network: 


(Cisco Controller) > config 802.11 cac video acm enable

The following example shows how to disable the video CAC for the 802.11b network: 


(Cisco Controller) > config 802.11 cac video acm disable

Related Commands

config 802.11 cac video max-bandwidth


config 802.11 cac video roam-bandwidth


config 802.11 cac video tspec-inactivity-timeout

config 802.11 cac video cac-method

To configure the Call Admission Control (CAC) method for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network, use the config 802.11 cac video cac-method command.

config 802.11 { a | b} cac video cac-method { static | load-based}

Syntax Description

a

Specifies the 802.11a network.

b

Specifies the 802.11b/g network.

static

Enables the static CAC method for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network.

Static or bandwidth-based CAC enables the client to specify how much bandwidth or shared medium time is required to accept a new video request and in turn enables the access point to determine whether it is capable of accommodating the request.

load-based

Enables the load-based CAC method for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network.

Load-based or dynamic CAC incorporates a measurement scheme that takes into account the bandwidth consumed by all traffic types from itself, from co-channel access points, and by collocated channel interference. Load-based CAC also covers the additional bandwidth consumption results from PHY and channel impairment. The access point admits a new call only if the channel has enough unused bandwidth to support that call.

Load-based CAC is not supported if SIP-CAC is enabled.

Command Default

Static.

Usage Guidelines

CAC commands for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Gold.

Before you can configure CAC parameters on a network, you must complete the following prerequisites:

  • Disable all WLANs with WMM enabled by entering the config wlan disable wlan_id command.

  • Disable the radio network you want to configure by entering the config 802.11{a | b} disable network command.

  • Save the new configuration by entering the save config command.

  • Enable voice or video CAC for the network you want to configure by entering the 
config 802.11{a | b} cac voice acm enable or config 802.11{a | b} cac video acm enable command.

Video CAC consists of two parts: Unicast Video-CAC and MC2UC CAC. If you need only Unicast Video-CAC, you must configure only static mode. If you need only MC2UC CAC, you must configure Static or Load-based CAC. Load-based CAC is not supported if SIP-CAC is enabled.

Command History

Release Modification

Usage Guidelines

CAC commands for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Gold.

Usage Guidelines

The maximum radio frequency (RF) bandwidth cannot exceed 85% for voice and video. Once the client reaches the value specified, the access point rejects new calls on this network.


Note

If this parameter is set to zero (0), the controller assumes that you do not want to allocate any bandwidth and allows all bandwidth requests.

Call Admission Control (CAC) commands require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Platinum.

min-client-rate

Configures the minimum transmission data rate to the client for multicast-direct media streams.

dot11-rate

Minimum transmission data rate to the client for multicast-direct media streams. Rate in kbps at which the client can operate.

If the transmission data rate is below this rate, either the video will not start or the client may be classified as a bad client. The bad client video can be demoted for better effort QoS or subject to denial. The available data rates are 6000, 9000, 12000, 18000, 24000, 36000, 48000, 54000, and 11n rates.

Command Default

The default value for the maximum retry percent is 80. If it exceeds 80, either the video will not start or the client might be classified as a bad client. The bad client video will be demoted for better effort QoS or is subject to denial.

Usage Guidelines

CAC commands for video applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Gold.

The default maximum bandwidth allocated to clients for voice applications on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network is 0%.

Usage Guidelines

The maximum radio frequency (RF) bandwidth cannot exceed 85% for voice and video. Once the client reaches the value specified, the access point rejects new calls on this network.

CAC commands require that the WLAN you are planning to modify is configured for the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) protocol and the quality of service (QoS) level be set to Platinum.

Before you can configure CAC parameters on a network, you must complete the following prerequisites:

Syntax Description

a

Specifies the 802.11a network.

bandwidth

Bandwidth percentage value from 0 to 85%.

Command Default

The default CAC maximum allocated bandwidth reserved for roaming voice clients on the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network is 85%.

Usage Guidelines

The maximum radio frequency (RF) bandwidth cannot exceed 85% for voice and video. The controller reserves the specified bandwidth from the maximum allocated bandwidth for roaming voice clients.


Note

If this parameter is set to zero (0), the controller assumes you do not want to allocate any bandwidth and therefore allows all bandwidth requests.
