OID_802_11_RTS_THRESHOLD (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This object identifier, when set, requests that the miniport driver set the Request To Send (RTS) threshold to a specified value.

This value, which is specified in bytes, specifies the packet size beyond which the 802.11 wireless LAN invokes its RTS/CTS mechanism.

Packets that exceed the specified RTS threshold trigger the RTS/CTS mechanism. The NIC transmits smaller packets without using RTS/CTS.

An RTS threshold value of 0 indicates that the NIC should transmit all packets using RTS/CTS.

When queried, this OID requests that the miniport driver return its NIC's RTS threshold setting.

The RTS threshold is defined as follows.

typedef  ULONG   NDIS_802_11_RTS_THRESHOLD;
