Usage Guidelines
The access point can have one guest-mode service set identifier (SSID) or none. The guest-mode SSID is used in beacon frames and response frames to probe requests that specify the empty or wildcard SSID. If no guest-mode SSID exists, the beacon contains no SSID and probe requests with the wildcard SSID are ignored. Disabling the guest mode makes the networks slightly more secure. Enabling the guest mode helps clients that passively scan (do not transmit) associate with the access point. It also allows clients configured without a SSID to associate.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the wireless LAN (WLAN) into guest mode:
Router(config-if-ssid)# guest-mode
This example shows how to reset the guest-mode parameter to default values:
Router(config-if-ssid)# no guest-mode

Usage Guidelines
When multiple basic SSIDs are enabled on the access point, the SSIDL IE does not contain a list of SSIDs; it contains only extended capabilities.
When you designate an SSID to be included in an SSIDL IE, client devices detect that the SSID is available, and they also detect the security settings required to associate using that SSID.
Examples
This example shows how to designate an SSID for inclusion in the WPS IE:
Router(config-ssid)# information-element ssidl advertisement wps

The first section of statistics lists cumulative statistics from the local authenticator.
The second section lists statistics for each access point (NAS) authorized to use the local authenticator. The EAP-FAST statistics in this section include the following:
- Auto provision success--the number of PACs generated automatically
- Auto provision failure--the number of PACs not generated because of an invalid handshake packet or invalid username or password
- PAC refresh--the number of PACs renewed by clients
- Invalid PAC received--the number of PACs received that were expired, that the authenticator could not decrypt, or that were assigned to a client username not in the authenticator’s database
The third section lists stats for individual users. If a user is blocked and the lockout time is set to infinite, blocked appears at the end of the stat line for that user. If the lockout time is not infinite, Unblocked in x seconds appears at the end of the stat line for that user.
Use the clear radius local-server statistics command in privileged EXEC mode to reset local authenticator statistics to zero.

speed (access point radio)
To configure the data rates supported by the access point radio, use the speedcommand in interface configuration mode. To reset the data rates to the default values, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
data-rates |
The data rates (in megabits per second [Mbps]) the access point uses to transmit unicast packets; multicast packets are sent at one of the basic data rates. The basic data rates set the access point to require the use of the specified data rates for all packets, both unicast and multicast. At least one of the access point’s data rates must be set to a basic setting. The client must support the basic rate you select or it cannot associate to the access point. |
default |
Sets data rates to the default settings. This option is supported on 5-GHz radios and 802.11g, 2.4-GHz radios only. |
ofdm-throughput |
Sets all Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) rates (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 48) to basic and all (Cisco Centralized Key (CCK) rates (1, 2, 5.5, and 11) to disabled. Disables 802.11b protection mechanisms and provides maximum throughput for 802.11g clients. This setting prevents 802.11b clients from associating to the access point. This option is supported on 802.11g, 2.4-GHz radios only. |
range |
Sets the data rate for best radio range. On the 2.4-GHz radio, this selection configures the 1.0 data rate to basic and the other data rates to supported. On the 5-GHz radio, this selection configures the 6.0 data rate to basic and the other data rates to supported. |
throughput |
(Optional) Sets the data rate for best throughput. On the 2.4-GHz radio, all data rates are set to basic. On the 5-GHz radio, all data rates are set to basic. This option is supported on 5-GHz and 802.11b, 2.4-GHz radios only. |
Command Default
On the 802.11b, 2.4-GHz radio, all data rates are set to basic by default. On the 802.11g, 2.4-GHz radio, data rates 1.0, 2.0, 5.5, 6.0, 11.0, 12.0, and 24.0 are set to basic by default, and the other data rates are supported.

Usage Guidelines
At least one data rate must be specified. Multiple data rates are allowed.
An individual data rate can be set only to a basic or a nonbasic setting, not both. The basic setting allows transmission at the given rate for all packets, both unicast and multicast. At least one of the wireless device’s data rates must be set to a basic setting.
For the 802.11b, 2.4-GHz radio, the data-rates value can be1, 2, 5.5, 11.0, basic-1.0, basic-2.0, basic-5.5, or basic-11.0.
For the 802.11g, 2.4-GHz radio, the data-ratesvalue can be 1.0, 2.0, 5.5, 6.0, 9.0, 11.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0, basic-1.0, basic-2.0, basic-5.5, basic-6.0, basic-9.0, basic-11.0, basic-12.0, basic-18.0, basic-24.0, basic-36.0, basic-48.0, or basic-54.0.
The 5-GHz radio supports data rates of 6.0, 9.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0, 54.0, basic-6.0, basic-9.0, basic-12.0, basic-18.0, basic-24.0, basic-36.0, basic-48.0, or basic-54.0.
Data rates can be specified in any order, and basic rates need not precede nonbasic rates.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the radio data rates for best throughput:
Router(config-if)# speed throughput
This example shows how to set the radio data rates to support a low-speed client device while still supporting higher-speed client devices:

This command was modified to support 802.11d world mode. |
12.4(2)T |
This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(2)T. |
Usage Guidelines
You can configure the access point to support 802.11d world mode or Cisco legacy world mode.
With world mode enabled, the access point advertises the local settings, such as allowed frequencies and transmitter power levels. Clients with this capability then passively detect and adopt the advertised world settings, and then actively scan for the best access point. Cisco client devices running firmware version 5.30.17 or later detect whether the access point is using 802.11d or Cisco legacy world mode and automatically use world mode that matches the mode used by the access point.
This command is not supported on the 5-GHz radio interface.
Examples
The following example shows how to enable 802.11d world mode operation:
Router(config-if)# world-mode dot11d country-code TH both
