6.3 MU Intrusion Detection

Unauthorized attempts to access the switch managed LAN by MUs is a significant threat to the network. The
switch can protect against threats from MUs trying to find network vulnerabilities. Basic forms of this
behavior can be monitored and reported.

BSS MAC Address

Displays the MAC Address of each Unapproved AP. These MAC Addresses are access points
observed on the network (by associated MUs), but have yet to be added to the list of
Approved APs, and are therefore interpreted as a threat on the network.

Reporting MU

Displays the numerical value for the detecting MU.

Last Seen (In
Seconds)

Displays the time (in seconds) the Unapproved AP was last seen on the network by the
detecting MU. Use this interval to determine whether the detected MU is still a viable threat.

ESSID

Displays the ESSID of each Unapproved AP. These ESSIDs are device ESSIDs observed on the
network, but have yet to be added to the list of Approved APs and are therefore interpreted
as a threat.
