Chapter 7 Configuring Radio Settings
Configuring Radio Data Rates
You can also configure the access point to set the data rates automatically to optimize either range or
throughput. When you enter range for the data rate setting, the access point sets the 1 Mbps rate to basic
and the other rates to enabled. When you enter throughput for the data rate setting, the access point sets
all four data rates to basic.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the access point’s radio network role and
fallback role:
Use the no form of the speed command to disable data rates. When you use the no form of the command,
all data rates are disabled except the rates you name in the command. This example shows how to disable
data rate 1.0:
ap1100# configure terminal
ap1100(config)# interface dot11radio 0
ap1100(config-if)# no speed basic-2.0 basic-5.5 basic-11.0
ap1100(config-if)# end
Data rate 1 is disabled, and the rest of the rates are set to basic.
This example shows how to set up the access point for 11 Mbps service only:
ap1100# configure terminal
ap1100(config)# interface dot11radio 0
ap1100(config-if)# no speed basic-11.0
ap1100(config-if)# end
Data rate 11 is set to basic, and the rest of the data rates are set to disabled.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface dot11radio 0 Enter interface configuration mode for the radio interface.
Step 3
speed
{[1.0] [11.0] [2.0] [5.5]
[basic-1.0] [basic-11.0]
[basic-2.0] [basic-5.5] |
range | throughput}
Set each data rate to basic or enabled, or enter range to
optimize access point range or throughput to optimize
throughput.
• (Optional) Enter 1.0, 2.0, 5.5, and 11.0 to set these data
rates to enabled.
• (Optional) Enter basic-1.0, basic-2.0, basic-5.5, and
basic-11.0 to set these data rates to basic.
• (Optional) Enter range or throughput to automatically
optimize radio range or throughput. When you enter
range, The access point sets the 1 Mbps rate to basic and
the other rates to enabled. When you enter throughput,
the access point sets all four data rates to basic.
Step 4
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
