Network Setup 4-73
Supported Rates allow an 802.11 network to specify the data rate it supports. When a MU attempts to
join the network, it checks the data rate used on the network. If a rate is selected as a basic rate it is
automatically selected as a supported rate. The basic default rates for an 802.11a radio differ from those
default rates available to an 802.11b radio, as an 802.11a radio can support a maximum data rate of
54Mbps, while an 802.11b radio can support a maximum data rate of 11Mbps.
4. Click the Clear all rates button to uncheck all of the Basic and Supported rates.
5. Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field displays error
messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and the switch.
6. Click OK to use the changes to the running configuration and close the dialog.
