4. For future scans, select Show Scheduling Options and enter the desired date and time.
5. After several minutes have passed, refresh the browser page and view the results of the scan. When the Start

6. Select the pencil icon for the scan to display the results. Table 69 describes the scan results and related
information.
NOTE: Scheduling an HTTP scan to run daily on your network can help you to discover rogues. Some consumer APs, like most D-
Link, Linksys, and NetGear models, do not support SNMP and are found only on the wired side with an HTTP scan. These devices
are discovered only if they have a valid IP address. Proper credentials are not required to discover these APs. Wireless scans and
the AMC discover these rogues without any special changes.
