Dynamic multicast optimization

  • The Dynamic multicast optimization (DMO) settings can be found in the Enterprise Connect Dashboard under WLAN.
  • Confirm your configurations, save and send the orders from your shopping cart as soon as you are finished.

Dynamic multicast optimization (DMO) - WLAN:


  • Select Enabled to allow the Access Point to convert multicast streams into unicast streams over the wireless link.
  • Enabling DMO enhances the quality and reliability of streaming video, while preserving the bandwidth available to the non-video clients.
  • NOTE: When you enable DMO on multicast SSID profiles, ensure that the DMO feature is nabled on all SSIDs configured in the same VLAN.

DMO channel utilization threshold:

  • Specify a value to set a threshold for DMO channel utilization.
  • With DMO, the Access Point converts multicast streams into unicast streams as long as the channel utilization does not exceed this threshold.
  • The default value is 90% and the maximum threshold value is 100%.
  • When the threshold is reached or exceeds the maximum value, the Instant AP sends multicast traffic over the wireless link.
