use the 802.11b/bg/ng mode cannot exceed 100 percent; similarly, the combined
percentages of the two profiles that use the 802.11a/na mode cannot exceed 100 percent.
On each managed access point (or on each radio in a managed dual-band access point), the
available bandwidth is distributed in the specified percentages among the profiles in a profile
group. The percentage that is configured for a single profile is shared among all the clients
connected to it.
If you do not want to configure rate limiting for a profile, configure rate limiting as
0 (zero) percent. This effectively disables rate limiting for that profile. A setting of
0 (zero) percent can work well for profiles that are used for management, administration, or
testing.
Rate Limiting for the Basic Profile Group
In the basic profile group, for each radio mode (802.11b/bg/ng mode and 802.11a/na mode),
rate limiting per profile adds up to a maximum of 100 percent. (It can be less than
100 percent.) There is a tab for each wireless radio mode.
To configure rate limiting for the basic profile group:
1. Select Configuration > Profile > Basic > Rate Limit.
The basic Rate Limit screen displays:
2. Click the tab for the radio for which you want to configure rate limiting.
3. For each profile on a wireless radio, specify the rate limit as a percentage.
You can drag the sliders to adjust the values in the rate limit fields to the right of the
sliders. Make sure that the total percentages of all profiles on one wireless radio do not
exceed 100 percent.
4. Click Apply.
