The wireless access point provides a wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS) and
wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) to detect and mitigate wireless attacks. These
intrusion systems are referred to as IDS/IPS.
If enabled, the IDS recognizes multiple types of wireless attacks, and the IPS automatically
neutralizes many attacks. Attacks are covered by preconfigured policy rules. When an attack
occurs, the wireless access point can notify a network administrator though an email.
The following table lists all IDS/IPS policies with their policy rules. Most of these policies
provide protection against denial of service (DoS) attacks. You can enable or disable IDS/IPS
policies, but both the policies and the policy rules are not configurable.
All thresholds are measured over a short period. For the IDS/IPS to send a notification according
to the policy rule, you first need to configure the email settings (see
