34.4.4 Technical Reference

The following section contains additional technical information about the features described in this
chapter.
Rogue APs
Rogue APs are wireless access points operating in a network's coverage area that are not under the
control of the network's administrators, and can open up holes in a network's security. Attackers can
take advantage of a rogue AP's weaker (or non-existent) security to gain access to the network, or set
up their own rogue APs in order to capture information from wireless clients. If a scan reveals a rogue AP,
you can use commercially-available software to physically locate it.

DESCRIPTION
Enter the interval (in milliseconds) before the AP switches to another channel for
monitoring.
Select auto to have the AP switch to the next sequential channel once the Channel dwell
time expires.
Select manual to set specific channels through which to cycle sequentially when the
Channel dwell time expires. Selecting this options makes the Scan Channel List options
available.
Select the country code of APs that are connected to the Zyxel Device to be the same as
where the Zyxel Device is located/installed.
The available channels vary depending on the country you selected. Be sure to select the
correct/same country for both radios on an AP and all connected APs, in order to prevent
roaming failure and interference to other systems.
After changing the country code, the AP channel setting will be reset if your manually
selected channel(s) are not valid in the new country code setting.
Move a channel from the Available channels column to the Channels selected column to
have the APs using this profile scan that channel when Scan Channel Mode is set to
manual.
These channels are limited to the 2 GHz range (802.11 b/g/n).
Move a channel from the Available channels column to the Channels selected column to
have the APs using this profile scan that channel when Scan Channel Mode is set to
manual.
These channels are limited to the 5 GHz range (802.11 a/n).
