Arial Bold 36 Arial Bold 28 Copyright©2012 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. All rights reserved. Arial 26 Arial 20 Arial 16 Prioritizing different applications for the best user experience  WMM is a set of features for Wi-Fi networks that improve the user experience for voice, video, and data applications.  Based on a profile of the IEEE e standard, WMM prioritizes traffic demands from different applications and  extends Wi-Fi's high quality end-user experience from data connectivity to voice, audio, and video applications under  a wide variety of environment and traffic conditions.  WMM allows a network owner to set four priority levels, which correspond to different types of traffic: Voice - highest priority Video - second highest priority 'Best effort' (applications like internet surfing and ) - third highest priority 'Background' (applications which are not latency-sensitive, such as printing) - low priority  By prioritizing individual data streams according to the individual requirements of the application, WMM helps ensure  that network traffic won't degrade the performance of a voice call or other highly sensitive application. With voice a  the highest priority, WMM enables a single access point to support multiple concurrent VoIP calls with good quality  and minimal latency effects such as delay or jitter.

Arial Bold 36 Arial Bold 28 Copyright©2012 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. All rights reserved. Arial 26 Arial 20 Arial 16 Benefits of WMM  WMM allows a managed switch to prioritize the traffic into four priority levels based on 802.1d priority tags, which correspond to different types of traffic:

Arial Bold 36 Arial Bold 28 Copyright©2012 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. All rights reserved. Arial 26 Arial 20 Arial 16 Example of how WMM affects through-put for competing data streams  In the top graph, WMM gives a higher priority to the video application than to the other data streams. During the first 10 seconds, both the video and the low priority data stream have sufficient resources.  The introduction of a third data stream creates transmission demands that exceed network capacity. WMM gives the video stream a higher priority to ensure that it has sufficient resources.  In the bottom graph, WMM is not enabled and, therefore, all traffic streams are given the same access to the wireless medium. In this case, the introduction of the third data stream penalizes all data streams equally
