Configuring a Permitted SSID List
The permitted SSID list specifies the SSIDs that are allowed on the network. If WSS Software detects packets for an
SSID that is not on the list, the AP that sent the packets is classified as a rogue. WSS Software issues countermeasures
against the rogue if they are enabled.
By default, the permitted SSID list is empty and all SSIDs are allowed. If you configure a permitted SSID list, WSS
Software allows traffic only for the SSIDs that are on the list. The permitted SSID list applies only to the WSS switch on
which the list is configured. WSS switches do not share permitted SSID lists.
To add an SSID to the list, use the following command:
set rfdetect ssid-list ssid-name
The following command adds SSID mycorp to the list of permitted SSIDs:
23x0# set rfdetect ssid-list mycorp
success:
To display the permitted SSID list, use the following command:
show rfdetect ssid-list
The following example shows the permitted SSID list on WSS switch:
23x0# show rfdetect ssid-list
Total number of entries: 3

To remove an SSID from the permitted SSID list, use the following command:
clear rfdetect ssid-list ssid-name
The following command clears SSID mycorp from the permitted SSID list:
23x0# clear rfdetect ssid-list mycorp
success: mycorp is no longer in ssid-list.
ssid mycorp is now in ssid-list.
