    How can be compatibility with 802.1b or 802.1g disable in a WLC with 225 APs?. I have a WLC 7030.

    I want all my costumers to be just 802.11n radios. I want to use badn steering and balance within radios for 802.11n. I want to improve my performance. Is air fairness enable by default?

    You cannot completely disable 802.11g and 802.11a (greenfield) because of neighboring networks.

     

    What you can do is eliminate lower data rates to force users to associate at a higher data rate.

     

    Band steering and SLB are enabled automatically with ClientMatch.

    Hi. Thanks for your answer. I can disable this lower data rates like 1 and 2 Mbps in SSID profile under the Virtual AP, is that correct?

    Yes. To completely disable 802.11b, disable all transmit rates below 12 and
    set your basic rates to 12 and 24.
