 Protected Management Frames provide security for unicast and multicast management action frames. PMF prevents unicast management action frames from eavesdropping and forging data. It also prevents forged multicast management action frames. PMF augments existing privacy protections for data frames with mechanisms that improve the resilience of mission-critical networks. Protected Management Frames provide security for unicast and multicast management action frames.

 This sets the maximum number of clients allowed on the WiFi network. Increasing this number isn't advised. The the likely result will be an overloaded network with slow throughput. There is little risk in testing a lower number. This can be useful to reduce network traffic, or for security purposes. This sets the maximum number of clients allowed on the WiFi network.
