Data Rate Trimming
##################

The following scenarios show how to configure WLAN-capable devices to remove
slow rates, improve air time, and increase overall performance.

**************************
802.11g Data Rate Trimming
**************************

Description
===========

In this example, a WLAN interface will be created on top of the ``2.4 GHz``
radio module. Then, several sets of ``802.11g`` data rates will be disabled
so that slow rates do not penalize performance. Note that the
management rate will be automatically set to the slowest data rate allowed.

**************************
802.11a Data Rate Trimming
**************************

Description
===========

In this example, a WLAN interface will be created on top of the ``5 GHz``
radio module. Then, several sets of ``802.11a`` data rates will be disabled
so that slow data rates do not penalize performance. Note that
the management rate will be automatically set to the slowest data rate allowed.
