For example, if you specify the maximum MCS index as 5 for mandatory rates, rates corresponding to
MCS indexes 0 through 5 are configured as 802.1 1n mandatory rates.
Mandatory rates must be supported by the AP and the clients that want to associate with the AP.
•
Supported rates allow some clients that support both mandatory and supported rates to choose
•
higher rates when communicating with the AP.
•
Multicast MCS: Specifies 802.1 1n multicast data rates.
Configuring 802.11n rates
