Table
• MAC address: MAC address of the radio. Click the address to see detailed information about
the AP.
• SSID: SSID on which the radio is broadcasting.
• Mode: Wireless mode in which the raio is operating.
• Channel: Channel on which the raio is operating.
• SNR: Signal to noise ratio detected.
• Info: Encryption being used.
• Classification: Classification is done through the use of automatic classification policies and
manual overrides that can be used by the administrator to address specific
topology/environmental considerations. Manual categorization (see the next section) will
override automatic classification. When relying solely on automatic classification, AP radios
will be classified into three distinct groups:
◦ Authorized: AP radios that are discovered and managed by the controller (controlled
mode APs) are automatically classified as Authorized. You can also manually configure
a list of non-controlled APs that IDS should consider to be Authorized. Generally, these
would be third-party APs that you are aware of and are directly connected to the wired
network.
◦ External: These are AP radios that are not managed by the controller and are not
connected to the wired network. Essentially, these are radios that are not classified as
either Authorized or Rogue. For example, in-range radios from neighboring companies.
◦ Rogue: AP radios that are found to be connected to the wired network and not Authorized
are classified as Rogue.
• Last seen: Date and time the radio was last detected.
