Selects the IDS profile to be associated with the new AP Group. The drop-down menu contains
these options:
ids-disabled
ids-high-setting
ids -low-setting
ids-medium-setting
The IDS profiles configure the AP's Intrusion Detection System features, which detect and disable
rogue APs and other devices that can potentially disrupt network operations. An AP is considered
to be a rogue AP if it is both unauthorized and plugged into the wired side of the network. An AP is
considered to be an interfering AP if it is seen in the RF environment but is not connected to the
wired network.
