History
Usage If you disable a rate, you cannot use the rate as a mandatory rate or the beacon or
multicast rate. All rates that are applicable to the radio type and that are not disabled are
supported by the radio.
mandatory rate-list Set of data transmission rates that clients are required to support in
order to associate with an SSID on an MP radio. A client must support
at least one of the mandatory rates.
These rates are advertised in the basic rate set of 802.11 beacons,
probe responses, and reassociation response frames sent by MP radios.
Data frames and management frames sent by MP radios use one of the
specified mandatory rates.
The valid rates depend on the radio type:
❑ 11a—6.0, 9.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0
❑ 11b—1.0, 2.0, 5.5, 11.0
❑ 11g—1.0, 2.0, 5.5, 6.0, 9.0, 11.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0
❑ 11na—6.0, 9.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0, m0, m1, m2, m3, m4, m5,
m6, m7, m8, m9, m10, m11, m12, m13, m14, m15
❑ 11ng—1.0, 2.0, 5.5, 6.0, 9.0, 11.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0, m0, m1,
m2, m3, m4, m5, m6, m7, m8, m9, m10, m11, m12, m13, m14, m15
Use a comma to separate multiple rates, for example: 6.0,9.0,12.0.
disabled rate-list Data transmission rates that MP radios do not use to transmit data.
This setting applies only to data sent by the MP radios. The radios still
accepts frames from clients at disabled data rates.
The valid rates depend on the radio type and are the same as the valid
rates for mandatory.
beacon-rate rate Data rate of beacon frames sent by MP radios. This rate is also used
for probe-response frames.
The valid rates depend on the radio type and are the same as the valid
rates for mandatory. However, you cannot set the beacon rate to a
disabled rate.
multicast-rate
{rate | auto}
Data rate of multicast frames sent by MP radios.
❑ rate—Sets the multicast rate to a specific rate. The valid rates depend on
the radio type and are the same as the valid rates for mandatory.
However, you cannot set the multicast rate to a disabled rate.
❑ auto—Sets the multicast rate to the highest rate that can reach all clients
connected to the MP radio.
MSS Version 4.2 Command introduced.
MSS Version 7.0 Default rates for the mandatory option were removed.
