544Rogue Detection and Countermeasures

Configuring a Permitted Vendor List

The permitted vendor list specifies the third-party AP or client vendors that are allowed on the network. WSS Software does not list a device as a rogue or interfering device if the device’s OUI is in the permitted vendor list.

By default, the permitted vendor list is empty and all vendors are allowed. If you configure a permitted vendor list, WSS Software allows only the devices whose OUIs are on the list. The permitted vendor list applies only to the WSS switch on which the list is configured. WSS switches do not share permitted vendor lists.

To add an entry to the permitted vendor list, use the following command:

set rfdetect vendor-list {client ap} mac-addr

The following command adds an entry for clients whose MAC addresses start with aa:bb:cc:

23x0# set rfdetect vendor-list client aa:bb:cc:00:00:00

success: MAC aa:bb:cc:00:00:00 is now in client vendor-list.

The trailing 00:00:00 value is required.

To display the permitted vendor list, use the following command:

show rfdetect vendor-list

The following example shows the permitted vendor list on WSS switch:

23x0# show rfdetect vendor-list Total number of entries: 1

OUI Type

----------------- ------

aa:bb:cc:00:00:00 client 11:22:33:00:00:00 ap

To remove an entry from the permitted vendor list, use the following command:

clear rfdetect vendor-list {client ap} {mac-addrall}

The following command removes client OUI aa:bb:cc:00:00:00 from the permitted vendor list:

23x0# clear rfdetect vendor-list client aa:bb:cc:00:00:00

success: aa:bb:cc:00:00:00 is no longer in client vendor-list.
