I would configure that in the client driver settings in that case, and on 2.4GHz you would expect worse performance than on 5GHz; push your clients to 5GHz.
Does your client support 802.11ax/WiFi-6? What is the connection speed that your client and AP report (reported connection speed, not speed-test results)? You can get that from the controller in the WebUI, or on the CLI: 'show user' or 'show ap association'. Please share the output if you need more information on this.
And what are the specifications (MIMO/antennas) of your client and your AP? Performance will always be limited to the lowest number of MIMO/antennas of the client and the AP.
If both the client and AP support 11ax, they should not pick 2.4GHz but 5GHz, but if 2.4GHz is selected, you should be able to get more than 10Mbit/s, but probably not 10Mbyte/s.

I want to make an AX connection with a laptop that supports AX.
I'm not sure, but probably the laptop isn't connected by AX.
Because the speed is not even 10Mbit/s when connecting to 2.4.
I wanted to do a speed test by forcing an AX connection.
How can I find out which protocol a/b/g/n/ac/ax was used by the client in the Aruba controller?

I would expect big issues if you disable HT/VHT, maybe unless you are 100% sure that all of your clients support 11ax. And even then, I don't think clients (or the Aruba APs) are generally tested with only 11ax enabled.
May I ask what you are trying to achieve by disabling all other protocols?

I want to use "802.11ax" on my 7220 Aruba controller.
So I want to disable "802.11a/b/g/ac".
Can I disable it from any menu?
