Detecting Rogue
Access Points
A “rogue” access point is an unauthorized access point on the network.
Having rogue access points on the network poses a security risk, since it
can be used as a “backdoor” to gain access to your network and,
consequently, the devices on it.
The Access Point can help you detect two types of rogue access points:
■ Access points that are not using any wireless security
■ Access points that are not in your list of authorized access points
Detected rogue access points are recorded into the log file. If you are an
SNMP server on the network, you can configure it to generate a trap
whenever a rogue access point is detected.
