Configuring Management Frame Protection
Step4 Click the over-air or over-ds radio button.
Step5 Enter the reassociation time.
The values range from 20 to 1200.
Step6 Click Apply.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, perform these steps to configure SSH using the access point CLI:
Configuring Management Frame Protection
Management Frame Protection operation requires a WDS and is available on 32 Mb platforms only (s:
1130 and 1240 series access points, and 1300 series access points in AP mode.). MFP is configured at
the WLSE, but you can configure MFP on an access point and WDS manually.
Note If a WLSE is not present, then MFP cannot report detected intrusions and so has limited effectiveness.
If a WLSE is present, you should perform the configuration from the WLSE.
For complete protection, you should also configure an MFP access point for Simple Network Transfer
Protocol (SNTP).

Management Frame Protection

Management Frame Protection provides security features for the management messages passed between
Access Point and Client stations. MFP consists of two functional components: Infrastructure MFP and
Client MFP.
Infrastructure MFP provides Infrastructure support. Infrastructure MFP utilizes a message integrity
check (MIC) across broadcast and directed management frames which can assist in detection of rogue
devices and denial of service attacks. Client MFP provides client support. Client MFP protects
authenticated clients from spoofed frames, by preventing many of the common attacks against WLANs
from becoming effective.
