AP Detection
Figure 13-36.Viewing the Unapproved APs List
Note You can also view this list by selecting Device Information > Access Point
Detection and clicking the Unapproved APs tab. However, you can only view
information about APs on the other screen; you cannot allow the APs as
described below.
As shown in Figure 13-36, the list includes the following information for
each AP:
BSS MAC Address—This address is the APs BSSID. RPs report each BSSID
that is a source of a beacon as a detected AP. Because an AP might send
beacons using several different BSSIDs, RPs might report the same phys-
ical AP several times.
Reporting Radio—This is the index for the adopted radio that detected this
AP. This information can help you pinpoint a rogue AP’s location.
Channel—This is the channel on which the detected AP operates.
Signal Strength (In dBm)—This field lists the detected AP’s signal strength,
expressed in dBm. This information can help you determine how close
the AP is to the reporting radio.
