Router setup for rabbit question

I'd use a short 7/8 CD cutter. Set fence for 3/4".
And I'd climb cut. (Practice on scrap).

I sure Freud , Whiteside, etc make them also.  This was a visual to see which way you are cutting
That's the way, but a fence is required, because the "d" is actually the width of the ply being used, not actually 3/4"

Here is a pic. Being as the width is less than 3/4", a 3/4" bit would work, as long as it's bottom cutting.

your terminology and mine do not match 

You want perpendicular  joinery 

as in using it to align cabinet frames to carcasses 

Any bottom cutting bit 3/4" or a bigger will work

For that joint I would use a TS/dado blade. If I was going to set up a router to join corners it would also be able to provide plenty of glue surface, and act as a self squaring corner to decrease my work load. Something like a lock miter. Once adjusted all you need are consistently thick stock parts, and you can go go go. If you had any number of boxes to make any time spent setting up would be more than saved on assembly.

With a drawer lock bit you can use different sized pieces of stock, and still make a solid joint.

I think it would be nice to have a dedicated, setup to cut the "rabbet" And being I have a number of unused routers, that's what I want to use.
I have a lock miter, and a drawer lock bit, but it's not needed for what I want to do.
The lock miter is nice, for a miter, but a bit of a setup is needed. Only used mine 1 time.
