Using The Ids Events Report - Dell PowerConnect W-Airwave User Manual

You can use this report as the central starting point to improve uptime by multiple criteria. This report covers
protocol-oriented, device-oriented, or SSID-oriented information. This report can help to monitor and optimize
the network in multiple ways. This report can demonstrate service parameters, can establish locations that have
superior or problematic uptime availability, and can help with additional analysis in multiple ways. Locations,
device groups, or other groupings within a network can be identified as needing attention or can be proven to
have superior performance when using this report.

Using the IDS Events Report

The IDS Events Report lists and tracks IDS events on the network involving APs or controller devices. This
report cites the number of IDS events for devices that have experienced the most instances in the prior 24 hours,
and provides links to support additional analysis or configuration in response.
NOTE: Your role must be enabled to view RAPIDS to see this report.
The Home > Overview page also cites IDS events, and triggers can be configured for IDS events. Refer to
"Setting Triggers for IDS Events" on page 189
Selecting the AP device or controller name takes you to the APs/Devices > List page.
