Set Rates Click the Set Rates button to define minimum and maximum data
transmit rates for the radio.
Use the Basic Rates drop-down menu to select the rates available
for either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz radio band. The menu options differ,
based on the radio band.
For 2.4 GHz, the following options are available:
• 1 and 2 Mbps
• 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbps (default setting)
• 1, 2, 5.5, 11 and 6, 12, 24 Mbps
• 1, 2, 5.5, 11 and 6, 12, 24 Mbps and MCS 0-7
• 6, 12 and 24 Mbps
• 6, 12 and 24 Mbps and MCS 0-7
• MCS 0-7
For 5 Ghz, the following options are available:
• 6, 12 and 24 Mbps
• 6, 12 and 24 Mbps and MCS 0-7
• MCS 0-7
When a basic rate option is selected (from the drop-down menu),
the rates are automatically selected and grayed out in the
Supported Rates radio boxes. Select remaining rates as needed
for additional supported rates.
Enable the Support Short Guard Interval
interval (for interference protection) for 20 MHz and 40 MHz
channel widths. When enabled, the AP's radio defines values to
enable a packet to be transmitted with guard interval based on the
configuration and capabilities of associated clients. Clients can
associate to an AP-7131 regardless of whether they support a short
guard interval.
If supporting 802.11n, select a
a MCS (modulation and coding scheme) in respect to the radio's
channel width and guard interval. A MCS defines (based on RF
channel conditions) an optimal combination of 8 data rates, bonded
channels, multiple spatial streams, different guard intervals and
modulation types. MUs can associate as long as they support basic
MCS (as well as non-11n basic rates).

configuration screen. Clicking
