6.13 Configuring Rogue AP Detection

It is possible that not all of the devices identified by the AP-5131 are operating legitimately within
the AP-5131’s radio coverage area. A rogue AP is a device located nearby an authorized Symbol
AP-5131 but recognized as having properties rendering its operation illegal and threatening to the
AP-5131 and the LAN. Rogue AP detection can be configured independently for both AP-5131 802.11a
and 802.11b/g radios (if using a dual radio sku AP-5131). A rogue detection interval is the user-
defined interval the AP-5131 waits to search for rogue APs. Additionally, the AP-5131 does not detect
rogue APs on illegal channels (channels not allowed by the regulatory requirements of the country
the AP-5131 is operating in).
