Note:
For the connected APs enabled with radio, the rate settings won't take effect until the APs
reboot or their radios are disabled and enabled again.
Basic Rate: Specify the basic rate set with which the 802.11a clients are
allowed to access the network. At least one rate should be selected from the
rate set. 6Mbps, 12Mbps and 24Mbps are selected by default.
Supported Rate: Specify the supported rate for 802.11a clients. The supported
rate set should not overlap with the basic rate set. 9Mbps 18Mbps, 36Mbps
48Mbps and 54Mbps are selected by default.
Multicast Rate: Specify the multicast rate for the 802.11a multicast packets.
The rate should be selected from the basic rate set. When auto is selected, the
system will select a suitable rate from the basic rate set automatically.
Basic Rate: Specify the basic rate with which 802.11b clients are allowed to
access the wireless network. At least one rate should be selected in the rate
set. 1Mbps and 2Mbps are selected by default.
Supported Rate: Specify the supported rate for 802.11b clients. The supported
rate should not overlap with the basic rate that has been set. 5.5Mbps and
11Mbps are selected by default.
Multicast Rate: Specify the multicast rate for the 802.11b multicast packets.
The rate should be selected from the basic rate set. When auto is selected, the
system will select a suitable rate from the basic rate set automatically.
Basic Rate: Specify the basic rate with which the 802.11g clients are allowed to
access the network. At least one rate should be selected in the rate set. 1Mbps,
2Mbps, 5.5 Mbps and 11Mbps are selected by default.
Supported Rate: Specify the supported rate for 802.11g clients. The supported
rate set should not overlap with the basic rate set. 6Mpbs, 9Mbps, 12Mbps,
18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps, 48Mbps and 54Mbps are selected by default.
Multicast Rate: Specify the multicast rate for the 802.11g multicast packets.
The rate should be selected from the basic rate set. When auto is selected, the
system will select a suitable rate from the basic rate set automatically.
Basic MCS Index: Specify the basic MCS index for 802.11n clinet. The
maximum MCS index value for 802.11n clients should be equal to or greater
than the basic MCS index value. Otherwise, the clients cannot be allowed to
access the wireless network. The default setting is blank. If a value is selected ,
only 802.11n clients are allowed to access the network.
Supported MCS Index: Specify the support MCS index for the device. The
support MCS index should be equal to or greater than the basic MCS index.
Basic MCS Set: Specify the basic MCS set for the device. The 802.11ac clients
should support the number of antennas and MCS index range regulated by the
basic MCS set. Otherwise, the clients cannot access the wireless network.
Supported MCS Set: Specify the support MCS set for the device. The
corresponding number of antennas and MCS index range of the support MCS
set should be equal to or greater than that of basic MCS set.
