Threshold Description
802.1x Authentication Frames
Seen
Enter the maximum number of 802.1x authentication frames
allowed to be transmitted or received from all Wireless Clients. If
Extreme AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an
alarm.
Default = 0.
Deauthentication Frames Seen Enter the maximum number of de-authentication frames allowed to
be transmitted or received from all Wireless Clients. If Extreme
AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Default = 0.
Probe Requests Seen Enter the maximum number of probe requests allowed to be
transmitted or received from all Wireless Clients. If Extreme
AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Default = 0.
Wired to Wireless Trac % Enter the maximum percentage of data, per minute, allowed into a
BSS from the wired portion of your network. If Extreme AirDefense
detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Default = 60.
Use the Min Frame control set the minimum number of frames for
this threshold.
Wireless to Wired Trac % Enter the maximum percentage of data per minute allowed out of a
BSS to a wired portion of your network. If Extreme AirDefense
detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Use the Min Frame control set the minimum number of frames for
this threshold.
Default = 60.
Wireless station to station Trac
%
Enter the maximum percentage of data per minute allowed to be
transmitted within the BSS from all Wireless Clients. If Extreme
AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Use the Min Frame control set the minimum number of frames for
this threshold.
Default = 50.
Wired station to station Trac % Enter the maximum percentage of data per minute allowed to be
transmitted from a wired portion of the network to another wired
portion of the network, using an AP as a bridge. If Extreme
AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an alarm.
Use the Min Frame control set the minimum number of frames for
this threshold.
Default = 1.
Low Speed Frames % 802.11 protocols operate on a shared medium and use collision
avoidance mechanism to access this medium. Excessive use of
lower rates for transmitting frames is likely caused by stations
which are either misconfigured to use lower rates or are too far
from the APs to be able to support higher rates and cause alarms to
be generated.
Enter the maximum percentage of data per minute allowed for low
speed frames to be transmitted or received from all stations. If
Extreme AirDefense detects a greater number, it generates an
alarm.
Use the Min Frame control set the minimum number of frames for
this threshold.
Default = 0.
