Configuration Guide Configuring WIDS
2.4.1 Configuring Frame Filtering
Configuration Effect
Configure the frame filtering rules to provide packet filtering services.
Notes
An STA cannot be configured in both the static blacklist and the whitelist.
An STA cannot exist in both the blacklist and whitelist of the same SSID.
Configuration Steps
Configuring the Low-Rate Filter
(Optional) The kickout threshold command is used in WIDS configuration mode to configure the low-rate kickout
threshold. The low-rate filtering function effectively works only after the low-rate kickout threshold is configured (larger
than 0).
rate: Indicates the low-rate kickout threshold ranging from 0 to 130 Mbps.
By default, low-rate STAs are not filtered out, and the kickout threshold is 0.
The STAs can select different low-rate STA filtering thresholds based on requirements.
Configuring the Whitelist
Optional.
Run the whitelist mac-address command to add an entry to the whitelist in WIDS configuration mode. The whitelist
filtering function effectively works only after an effective whitelist entry is configured.
Run the whitelist max command to configure the maximum number of entries in the whitelist in WIDS configuration
mode.
whitelist { mac-address H.H.H |max num }
mac-address H.H.H: Indicates the MAC address of a whitelist entry.
max num: Indicates the length of the whitelist ranging from 1 to 2,048.
By default, the whitelist is empty and the whitelist length is 1,024.
The whitelist function takes effect only when the whitelist has entries.
Configuring the Static Blacklist
Optional.
