6-92 WS5100 Series Switch System Reference Guide
The switch is provided with a set of 802.11a and 802.11bg radio specific channels. The switch radio scans
scan each channel to detect the potential existence or rogues operating on the configured channel. On
completion of a scan, the switch moves the AP back to its original channel.
If, during the scan, an AP is detected on a different channel (due to a leaked signal), this channel is also
added to the channel set. The AP sends this information to the switch, which maintains a table with the
following information:
• MAC address of the detected rogue AP
• AP MAC address
• Signal strength of the detected rogue AP
• Channel on which the AP was detected
• Time when the AP was detected.
This information is used by the Motorola RF Management application (or Motorola RFMS) to locate the rogue
AP. Motorola RFMS uses this information to physically locate the position of rogues and authorized devices
within a site map representative of the physical dimensions of the actual device deployment area.
