A. WMM is a component of the IEEE 802.11e wireless LAN standard for Quality of Service (QoS). It specifically supports priority tagging and queuing. The priority is given to downstream traffic (AP to Client) based on the 802.1p tagged value. There are four queues supported: Voice, Video, Best Effort, and Background. This feature should be enabled for wireless networks that will have a lot of voice traffic and/or video traffic.
