Because the neighbor and rogue access points are detected during off-channel scans, it
typically takes about 10 minutes after the rogue AP detection is enabled for the neighbor
and rogue access points to be detected and the known list (that is, the database with
known access points) and unknown list (that is, the database with unknown access
points) on the wireless controller to be populated.

Configure Advanced Rogue Detection Settings

The advanced Rogue AP screen allows you to identify what could be an access point from a
neighboring business that is known. As you identify them, mark them as known or unknown
so that the wireless controller does not keep finding them and flagging them. This will help
you to identify your own equipment that should be managed and the rogue access points that
should be detected. A rogue access point has both a wireless and LAN connection. A
neighbor is an access point with only a wireless connection, not a LAN connection.
To configure advanced rogue access point detection:
1.
Select Configuration > Security > Advanced > Rogue AP. The advanced Rogue AP
screen displays:
Figure 54.
The screen displays the Rogue List, which shows all detected rogue access points with
essential information, including information about their last beacon. To scroll through the
Rogue List, click Next or Previous.
As an option, you can import a list of access points from a file. For more information, see
the next section.
2.
Classify the access points in the Rogue List:
a. Select one or more check boxes that correspond to the access points, or select all
access point in the Rogue List by selecting the check box at the top of the table.
