Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(4)JA

This command was introduced.

12.4(2)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(2)T.


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

Command History

Release
Modification

Cisco IOS XE Release 2.6

This command was introduced.

15.0(1)S

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)S. The driver keyword was added.


Usage Guidelines

LSMPI is the virtual interface for the packet transfer between the IOS daemon (IOSd) and Linux kernel on RP through the Linux shared memory. Packets punted from the ESP to the RP are received by the Linux kernel of the RP. The Linux kernel sends those packets to the IOSD process through LSMPI.

speed

To configure the data rates supported by the access point radio, use the speed command in interface configuration mode. To reset the data rates to the default values, use the no form of this command.

speed {data-rates | default | ofdm-throughput | range | throughput}

no speed

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.
On the 5-GHz radio, data rates 6.0, 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 be 1, 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-rates value 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:

Router(config-if)# speed basic-1.0 2.0 5.5 11.0
