7.1.3 Configuring Rule Management

The Rule Management field within the Rogue AP Detection screen contains a Rule List button for
determining whether a detected AP can be approved or not. Each entry in the table works as an AP evaluation
rule. Specify a particular MAC address or ESSID, or optionally indicate any MAC address or ESSID will work.
Figure 7.3 Rule Management Section
1. Check the Authorize Any AP Having a Symbol Defined MAC Address box to indicate any Symbol
AP (which has a known Symbol MAC address) is an approved AP. This is helpful for rendering all Symbol
devices as approved without having to filter through the list of located addresses.
2. Define the following Rule Management options:
MAC Address Enter a valid mac address used during the detection process or use a wild card
(FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) to represent any MAC address.
ESSID Enter an approved ESSID used during the detection process or use a wild card(*)
to represent ANY ESSID.
3. Select a rule and click the Del button to delete it from the table.
4. Click the Delete All button to clear the entire rule list.
