set rfdetect signature

Enables AP signatures. An AP signature is a set of bits in a management frame sent by an AP that identifies that AP to WSS Software. If someone attempts to spoof management packets from a Nortel AP, WSS Software can detect the spoof attempt.

Syntax set rfdetect signature {enable disable}

enable	Enables AP signatures.
disable	Disables AP signatures.

Defaults AP signatures are disabled by default. Access Enabled.

History Introduced in WSS Software Version 4.0.

Usage The command applies only to APs managed by the WSS on which you enter the command. To enable signatures on all APs in a Mobility Domain, enter the command on each WSS in the Mobility Domain.

Note. You must use the same AP signature setting (enabled or disabled) on all WSSs in a Mobility Domain.

Examples The following command enables AP signatures on a WSS:

23x0# set rfdetect signature enable

success: signature is now enabled.

set rfdetect ssid-list

Adds an SSID to the permitted SSID list.The permitted SSID list specifies the SSIDs that are allowed on the network. If WSS Software detects packets for an SSID that is not on the list, the AP that sent the packets is classified as a rogue. WSS Software issues countermeasures against the rogue if they are enabled.

Syntax set rfdetect ssid-list ssid-name

ssid-name SSID name you want to add to the permitted SSID list.

Defaults The permitted SSID list is empty by default and all SSIDs are allowed. However, after you add an entry to the list, WSS Software allows traffic only for the SSIDs that are on the list.
