VHT Support on W-AP200 Series, W-AP210 Series, W-AP220 Series, and W-AP270
Series Access Points
This feature enables Very High Throughput (VHT) rates on the 2.4 GHz band, providing 256-QAM modulation
and encoding that allows for 600 Mbit/sec performance over 802.11n networks. Maximum data rates are
increased on the 2.4 GHz band through the addition of VHT Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) values 8
and 9, which support the highly efficient modulation rates in 256-QAM. Starting with ArubaOS 6.4.2.0, VHT is
supported on W-AP200 Series, W-AP210 Series, W-AP220 Series, and W-AP270 Series access points on both 20
MHz and 40 MHz channels.
Using the controller’s CLI or WebUI, VHT MCS values 0-9 are enabled, overriding the existing high-throughput
(HT) MCS values 0-7, which have a lower maximum data rate. However, this feature should be disabled if
individual rate selection is required.
Managing 802.11a/802.11g Profiles Using the WebUI
Use the following procedures to define and manage 802.11a and 802.11g RF management profiles Using the
WebUI.
Creating or Editing a Profile
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless > AP Configuration window. Select either the AP Group or
AP Specific tab.
l If you selected AP Group, click the Edit button by the AP group for which you want to create or change
an RF management profile.
l If you selected AP Specific, click the Edit button by the AP for which you want to create or change an RF
management profile.
2. In the Profiles list, expand the RF Management menu, then select either 802.11a radio profile or
802.11g radio profile.
3. To edit an existing 802.11a or 802.11g radio profile, select the desired profile from the 802.11a radio
profile or 802.11g radio profile drop-down list at the top of the Profile Details window. To create a new
802.11a or 802.11g profile, click the drop-down list at the top of the Profile Details window, select NEW,
then enter a name for the new profile.
The 802.11a and 802.11g profiles are divided into two tabs, Basic and Advanced. The Basic tab displays
only those configuration settings that often need to be adjusted to suit a specific network. The Advanced
tab shows all configuration settings, including settings that do not need frequent adjustment or should be
kept at their default values. If you change a setting on one tab then click and display the other tab without
saving your configuration, that setting will revert to its previous value. The basic and advanced profile
settings are described in Table 121.
4. Make the desired configuration changes, then click Apply to save your settings.
