interface-config-radio-instance
Configures the 802.11 data rates on this radio
This command sets the rate options depending on the 802.11 protocol and the radio band selected. If 2.4 GHz is selected as the radio band, select separate 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n rates and define how they are used in combination. If 5.0 or 6 GHz is selected as the radio band, select separate 802.11a and 802.11n rates then define how they are used together.
If dedicating the radio to either 2.4, 5.0, or 6 GHz support, use the custom keyword to set a 802.11n MCS (modulation and coding scheme) in respect to the radio‘s channel width and guard interval. A MCS defines (based on RF channel conditions) an optimal combination of rates, bonded channels, multiple spatial streams, different guard intervals and modulation types. Clients can associate as long as they support basic MCS (as well as non-11n basic rates).
Data rates are fixed and not user configurable for radios functioning as sensors.
