Configuring MCS

Configuration of mandatory and supported 802.11an or 802.11gn rates is achieved by specifying the
maximum MCS index. The MCS data rate table shows relations between data rates, MCS indexes,

and parameters that affect data rates.
There are three types of 802.11 rates: mandatory rates, supported rates, and multicast rates. WSM

supports mandatory rates and supported rates.
To configure MCS:

1.

Click the Service tab.

2.

From the navigation tree, select WLAN Manager > Resource Management > Fat APs.
The Fat AP List page displays all fat APs.

3.

Click the device label of the target fat AP.

4.

In the RRM Management area to the right of the page, click the MCS Set Configuration link.

{

Max Index of Mandatory MCS Set—Enter the maximum mandatory MCS. Fat APs must
support mandatory rates. Clients can only associate with the fat APs when they support the
mandatory rates.

{

Max Index of Support MCS Set—Enter the supported maximum MCS. It cannot be smaller
than the mandatory maximum MCS. These are higher rates supported by the AP besides the

mandatory rates. Supported rates allow some clients that support both mandatory and

supported rates to choose higher rates when communicating with the AP.

5.

Click OK.

NOTE:

The MCS Set Configuration link is visible only when the fat AP supports 802.11an or 802.11gn.
