Enable and Configure Rogue AP Detection

The wireless access point can detect rogue access points and prevent them from connecting to the wireless access point. The wireless access point maintains a list of access points it detects in the area. Initially all detected access points are displayed in the Unknown AP List. You restrict communication to approved access points by adding them to the Known AP List and enabling the rogue AP detection feature.

If you enable rogue AP detection, the wireless access point continuously scans the wireless network and collects information about all access points on its channel.

To enable and configure rogue AP detection:

1.Select Configuration > Security > Advanced > Rogue AP. The Rogue AP screen displays. (The following figure shows examples in the Known AP List and Unknown AP List.)
