Configuring MCS Rates
MCS rates are configured using the speed command. The following example shows a speed setting for
an 802.11g/n 2.4-GHz radio:
interface Dot11Radio0
no ip address
no ip route-cache
!
ssid 800test
!
speed basic-1.0 2.0 5.5 11.0 6.0 9.0 12.0 18.0 24.0 36.0 48.0 54.0 m0. m1. m2. m3. m4. m8.
m9. m10. m11. m12. m13. m14. m15.
