Disabling or Reenabling Active Scan

When active scanning is enabled, the AP radios managed by the switch look for rogue devices by
sending probe any frames (probes with a null SSID name), to solicit probe responses from other APs.
Active scan is enabled by default. You can disable or reenable the feature on an individual radio profile
basis. To disable or reenable active scan on a radio profile, use the following command:
set radio-profile name active-scan {enable | disable}
The following command disables active scan in radio profile radprof3:
DWS-1008# set radio-profile radprof3 active-scan disable
success: change accepted.
An AP signature is a set of bits in a management frame sent by an AP that identifies that AP to
MSS. If someone attempts to spoof management packets from a D-Link AP, MSS can detect the spoof
attempt.
AP signatures are disabled by default. To enable or disable them, use the following command:
set rfdetect signature {enable | disable}
The command applies only to APs managed by the switch on which you enter the command. To
enable signatures on all APs in your network, enter the command on each DWS-1008 switch on your
network.
Note: You must use the same AP signature setting (enabled or disabled) on all DWS-1008 switches in
your network.
Disabling or Reenabling Logging of

reenable the log messages, use the following command:
set rfdetect log {enable | disable}
To display log messages on a switch, use the following command:
show log buffer
