Set the data rate for EAPOL transmission.
WLAN clients use EAP over LAN (EAPOL) to login to the access point by WPA and/or 802.1x. With this method, the EAP packets used for exchanging authentication information are encapsulated within Ethernet frames, which in turn facilitates EAP communication over a Layer-2 connection.
In some cases, it makes sense to select a lower data rate for the transmission of the EAPOL packets than for payload data. For example, in the case of mobile WLAN clients, high data rates can cause the loss of EAPOL packets, which in turn leads to considerable delays in client association. This procedure can be stabilized by selecting specific data rates for EAPOL.
