Viewing WIDS AP Rogue Classification Information

The Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) can help detect intrusion attempts into the wireless network and take
automatic actions to protect the network. The Unified Switch allows you to activate or deactivate various threat detection
tests and set threat detection thresholds. The WIDS AP Rogue Classification page provides information about the results
of these tests. If an AP has been classified as a rogue, this page provides information about which tests the AP might have
failed to trigger the classification.
If an AP is classified as a rogue, the system provides additional information to identify the threat type that caused the switch
to classify the AP as a rogue.
The WIDS RF Security encompasses three functions:
• Detect wireless devices by listening to control and data frames in the air.
• Classify whether the wireless device is a threat by comparing the received data to various databases as well as sending
trace frames into the wired network and listening for the trace frames on the wireless network.
• Take action to protect the network from threats.

Description
The Ethernet MAC address of the detected AP. This could be a physical radio interface or VAP
MAC. For D-Link APs this is always a VAP MAC address.
Identifies whether the AP that detected the entry is in sentry or non-sentry mode.
Shows the MAC address of the AP that detected the RF Scan entry. The address links to the
Valid AP database.
Identifies the radio on the AP that detected the RF Scan entry.
Shows the received signal strength indicator in terms of percentage for the non-sentry AP. The
range is 0—100%. A value of 0 indicates the AP is not detected.
Received signal strength for the non-sentry AP. The range is –127 dBm to 127 dBm, but most
values are expected to range from –95 dBm to –10 dBm.
Noise reported on the channel by the non-sentry AP.
Time since this AP was last detected in an RF scan.
