R510 Unleashed - disable 802.11b

[daniel_hainich]

Hi Guys,

iam running a mesh with 3 R510 AP with Unleashed Firmware 200.11.10.5.195.

There should be an AP-Group Option for configuring 11n only Mode.

But there is no such Option. This one is missing.

What did i wrong? Why there is no Option as described in Online help?

https://docs.commscope.com/bundle/unleashed-200.11-onlinehelp/page/GUID-6DA67030-206D-4E86-8202-038C...

Thanks,

Daniel

Yeah, that is annoying.  Every now and then Ruckus decides to remove or hide functionality that might confuse the 2% of users who are inexperienced while complicating life for the other 98%.  They also removed proxy-arp at some point.  You can disable 11b by enabling OFDM mode on each WLAN.  If you have more than one wlan, the commands should be executed for each wlan.  Here is an example to enable OFDM only mode on two wlans - "Blue1" and "Blue2"  

login:

password:

en (or enable)

config

wlan Blue1

ofdm-only

exit

wlan Blue2

ofdm-only

exit

exit 

exit

If desired, you can enable proxy arp with the command "proxy-arp" after the ofdm-only command. 

You  can also use the command "show" to verify your changes and see other wlan info. 

To disable ofdm-only or proxy-arp, insert the word "no" in front of the command ("no ofdm-only").

hi,

i changed the wifi to ofdm-only, but there was a client connecting with 11b.

i blocked/released the client but it still was connecting with 11b.

Can you CLI to the wlan context and run the show command and verify if the state of OFDM Only is "Enabled" ?

en

config

wlan Blue1

show
