Access Point Statistics
A Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) monitors the radio spectrum for the presence of unauthorized access points and
take measures to prevent an intrusion. Unauthorized attempts to access a controller or service platform managed WLAN is
generally accompanied by anomalous behavior as intruding clients try to find network vulnerabilities. Basic forms of this
behavior can be monitored and reported without a dedicated WIPS. When the parameters exceed a configurable threshold, a
SNMP trap is generated that reports the results via management interfaces.
The WIPS screens provide details about the blacklisted clients (unauthorized access points) intruded into the network. Details
include the name of the blacklisted client, the time when the client was blacklisted, the total time the client remained in the
network, etc. The screen also provides WIPS event details.
