Configuring Access Point Security

2. Configure the Detection Method field to set the detection method (MU or access point)
and define the 802.11a or 802.11b/g radio to conduct the rogue AP search.
3. Use the
Allowed AP List field to restrict Motorola AP’s from Rogue AP detection and create
a list of device MAC addresses and ESSID’s approved for interoperability with the access
point.
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 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.
RF Scan by Detector
Radio
If the access point is a dual-radio model, select the RF Scan by
Detector Radio checkbox to enable the selected 11a or 11b/g
radio to scan for rogue APs. For example, if 11b/g is selected, the
existing 11a radio would act as the “detector radio,” scanning on
all 11b/g channels while the existing 11b/g radio continues to
service MUs. The assumption is, when planning to do an all
channel scan on one band, the MUs would also be on that band.
The radio on the other band is used as the “detector radio.”
RF A/BG Scan Select this checkbox to scan for rouges over all channels on both of
the access point’s 11a and 11bg radio bands. The switching of radio
bands is based on a timer with no user intervention required. This
option provides a good opportunity to detect rogues, as rogues
often roam from one association to a stronger one regardless of the
current operating channel.
Authorize Any AP
Having Motorola
Defined MAC Address
Select this checkbox to enable all access points with a Motorola
MAC address to interoperate with the access point conducting a
scan for rogue devices.
