6.2.2 Approved APs (Reported by APs)
Those access points detected and approved for operation within the switch managed network can be
separately displayed to assess the reporting (detecting) AP, the channel of operation, the last time the AP
was observed on the network and the ESSID. Use this information to assess if an approved access point was
incorrectly defined as an approved device and requires categorization as an unapproved and disallowed AP.
To review the attributes of allowed APs:
1. Select Security > Access Port Intrusion Detection from the main menu.
2. Select the Approved APs (Reported by APs) tab.
3. The Approved APs (Reported by APs) table displays the following information:
4. The Number of Approved APs is simply the sum of all of approved access point MAC Addresses
detected.
5. Click on the Export button to export the contents of the table to a Comma Separated Values file (CSV).
BSS MAC Address Displays the MAC Address of each Approved AP. These MAC addresses are access points
observed on the network meeting the criteria (MAC and ESSIDs) of allowed APs.
Reporting AP Displays the numerical value for the radio used with the specific device MAC Address and
SSID listed for this approved AP.
Channel Displays the channel the approved AP is currently transmitting on. If this device is operating
on a channel not frequently used within your network segment, then perhaps the device is
correctly defined as an approved AP.
Last Seen (In
Seconds) Displays the time (in seconds) the approved AP was last seen on the network.
ESSID Displays the SSID of each approved AP.
