This command sets the $\mathrm{CW}_{\mathrm{min}}$ WMM parameter for either the AP or station parameter set.

The first value is the access class (AC) number as defined in Table [*] taken from the WMM standard. The second value indicates whether the $\mathrm{CW}_{\mathrm{min}}$ value is intended for the AP or station parameter set. A value of 0 indicates the $\mathrm{CW}_{\mathrm{min}}$ is for the AP parameter set. A value of 1 indicates the $\mathrm{CW}_{\mathrm{min}}$ is for the station parameter set. The third value is the actual value of the $\mathrm{CW}_{\mathrm{min}}$ in units as described in the WMM standard.
