Configuring High-throughput on Virtual APs
With the implementation of the IEEE 802.11n standard, high-throughput can be configured to operate on the 5
GHz and/or 2.4 GHz frequency band.
For high-throughput to function on a virtual AP profile for the assigned AP group or specific AP, high-throughput
must be enabled within the assigned ht-ssid-profile and the radio-profile(s) for the desired frequency band(s).
By default, high-throughput is enabled; however, the examples in this section guide you through manually
creating profiles and enabling high-throughput on the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz frequency bands to ensure proper
functionality of a virtual AP profile named “ht-vap-corpnet” assigned to an existing AP group named “ht-corpnet-
aps.”
This example inclues the following tasks:
z Create two high-throughput radio profiles named “ht-radioa-corpnet” and “ht-radiog-corpnet.”
z Create and configure a 5 GHz radio profile named “ht-corpnet-a” and assign the high-throughput radio
profile named “ht-radioa-corpnet.”
z Create and configure a 2.4 GHz radio profile named “ht-corpnet-g” and assign the high-throughput radio
profile named “ht-radiog-corpnet.”
z Create and configure a high-throughput SSID profile named “ht-ssid-corpnet.”
z Create an SSID profile named “ht-corpnet” and assign the high-throughput SSID profile named “ht-ssid-
corpnet.”
z Create a virtual AP profile named “ht-vap-corpnet” and assign the SSID profile named “ht-corpnet.”
z Assign the required profiles to an existing AP group named “ht-corpnet-ap.”
The following procedures are presented for the WebUI and the CLI.
In the WebUI
1. Navigate to Configuration > Wireless > AP Configuration > AP Group page.
2. Click Edit for the AP group ht-corpnet-ap.
3. Under the Profiles list, select RF Management to display the radio profiles.
4. Select the 802.11a radio profile.
Note: For an example of 20 MHz channel versus 40 MHz channel pair configuration, see “20 MHz and 40 MHz Static Channel
Assignments” on page 157.
Note: This radio profile represents activity on the 5 GHz frequency band. Since the high-throughput IEEE 802.11n standard
operates on the 5 GHz and/or 2.4 GHz frequency band, high-throughput can be enabled on 802.11a or 802.11g radio profiles.
