Manage neighbor AP detection

The access point can detect neighbor access points (APs) in a radio band and you can
classify them as known APs.
If you enable neighbor AP detection for a radio band, the access point regularly scans
the WiFi network, collects information about all access points on the channels, and
maintains a list of access points it detects in the area. Initially all detected access points
are displayed in the Unknown AP List. You can add access points that you are familiar
with to the Known AP List. You can also import a list of known access points in the Known
AP List.
CAUTION: Access points in the Unknown AP List require further investigation. They
could be rogue access points, which use the SSID of a legitimate network. These types
of access points can present a serious security threat.
The following sections describe how you can manage neighbor AP detection and add
neighbor access points to the Known AP List:
• Enable neighbor access point detection and move access points to the Known AP
List
• Import an existing neighbor access point list in the Known AP List
