Configuring rogue AP detection

6

1. Select Network Configuration -> Wireless -> Rogue AP Detection from the Brocade Mobility

7131N-FGR Access Point menu tree.

CAUTION
Users cannot define a rogue detection method when one of the access point radios is functioning
as a WIPS sensor. To use one of the radios as a detector, you must disable WIPS sensor mode
first, then set a radio for the desired detection method.

2. Configure the Detection Method field to set the detection method (MU or Brocade Mobility

7131N-FGR Access Point) and define the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio to conduct the
rogue AP search.

RF Scan by MU

Select the RF Scan by MU checkbox to enable MUs to scan for
potential rogue APs within the network. Define an interval in the
Scan Interval field for associated MUs to beacon in an attempt to
locate a rogue AP. Set the interval to a value sooner than the
default if a large volume of device network traffic is anticipated
within the coverage area of the target Brocade Mobility
7131N-FGR Access Point. The Scan Interval field is not available
unless the RF Scan by MU checkbox is selected. Motorola clients
must be associated and have rogue AP detection enabled.

RF On-Channel
Detection

Select the RF On-Channel Detection checkbox to enable the
access point to detect rogue APs on its current (legal) channel
setting.
