Chapter 7 Configuring Radio Settings
Configuring Radio Transmit Power
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:
ap1200# configure terminal
ap1200(config)# interface dot11radio 0
ap1200(config-if)# no speed basic-2.0 basic-5.5 basic-11.0
ap1200(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:
ap1200# configure terminal
ap1200(config)# interface dot11radio 0
ap1200(config-if)# no speed basic-11.0
ap1200(config-if)# end
Data rate 11 is set to basic, and the rest of the data rates are set to disabled.
Configuring Radio Transmit Power
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the transmit power on your access point
radio:
Step 3
speed
These options are available for the
2.4-GHz radio:
{[1.0] [11.0] [2.0] [5.5] [basic-1.0]
[basic-11.0] [basic-2.0] [basic-5.5] |
range | throughput}
These options are available for the
5-GHz radio:
{[6.0] [9.0] [12.0] [18.0] [24.0]
[36.0] [48.0] [54.0] [basic-6.0]
[basic-9.0] [basic-12.0] [basic-18.0]
[basic-24.0] [basic-36.0]
[basic-48.0] [basic-54.0] |
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 on the 2.4-GHz radio. Enter 6.0, 9.0, 12.0,
18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, and 54.0 to set these data rates to
enabled on the 5-GHz radio.
• (Optional) Enter basic-1.0, basic-2.0, basic-5.5, and
basic-11.0 to set these data rates to basic on the 2.4-GHz
radio. Enter basic-6.0, basic-9.0, basic-12.0, basic-18.0,
basic-24.0, basic-36.0, basic-48.0, and basic-54.0 to set
these data rates to basic on the 5-GHz radio.
• (Optional) Enter range or throughput to automatically
optimize radio range or throughput. When you enter
range, The access point sets the lowest data rate to basic
and the other rates to enabled. When you enter
throughput, the access point sets all 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.
