Item Description

802.11g

Configure rates (in Mbps) for 802.11g.
By default:

Mandatory rates are 1, 2, 5.5, and 11.

Supported rates are 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54.

Multicast rate: Automatically selected from the mandatory rates. The transmission rate of

multicasts in a BSS is selected from the mandatory rates supported by all the clients.

Configuring 802.11n MCS

Introduction to MCS

Configuration of mandatory and supported 802.11n rates is achieved by specifying the maximum
Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) index. The MCS data rate table shows relations between data

rates, MCS indexes, and parameters that affect data rates. Sample MCS data rate tables for 20 MHz

and 40 MHz are shown in

Table 116

and

Table 117

respectively. For the entire table, see IEEE P802.11n

D2.00.

Table 116

and

Table 117

indicate that MCS 0 through 7 are for one single spatial stream, and when the

MCS is 7, the data rate is the highest. MCS 8 through 15 are for two spatial streams, and when the MCS

is 15, the data rate is the highest.
