Figure 5-15 Signature > Detail Page
This page shows much of the same information as the Standard Signatures and Custom Signatures pages
but provides these additional details:
• The measurement interval, or the number of seconds that must elapse before the controller resets the
signature threshold counters
• The tracking method used by the access points to perform signature analysis and report the results
to the controller. The possible values are:
–
Per Signature—Signature analysis and pattern matching are tracked and reported on a
per-signature and per-channel basis.
–
Per MAC—Signature analysis and pattern matching are tracked and reported separately for
individual client MAC addresses on a per-channel basis.
–
Per Signature and MAC—Signature analysis and pattern matching are tracked and reported on
a per-signature and per-channel basis as well as on a per-MAC-address and per-channel basis.
• The signature frequency, or the number of matching packets per second that must be identified at
the individual access point level before an attack is detected
• The signature MAC frequency, or the number of matching packets per second that must be identified
per client per access point before an attack is detected
• The quiet time, or the length of time (in seconds) after which no attacks have been detected at the
individual access point level and the alarm can stop
• The pattern that is being used to detect a security attack
