Switch Security 6-7
6.2.3 Unapproved APs (Reported by APs)
Use the Unapproved APs (Reported by APs) tab to review access points detected by associated switch
access port radios that have been restricted from operation within the switch managed network. The criteria
for restriction was defined using the
Security > Access Port Intrusion Detection > Configuration
screen.
To view access port detected unapproved access points:
1. Select Security > Access Port Intrusion Detection from the main menu tree.
2. Click on the Unapproved APs (Reported by APs) tab.
3. The Unapproved APs (Reported by APs) table displays the following information:
BSS MAC Address Displays the MAC Address of each Unapproved AP. These MAC Addresses are access points
observed on the network, but have yet to be added to the list of Approved APs, and are
therefore interpreted as a threat on the network.
If a MAC Address displays on the list incorrectly, click the Allow button and add the MAC
Address to a new Allowed AP index.
Reporting AP Displays the numerical value for the radio used with the detecting AP.
Channel Displays the channel the Unapproved AP is currently transmitting on.
Signal Strength (in
dbm) Displays the Relative Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) for the detected (and unapproved) AP.
AP’s with a strong signal may pose a more significant risk within the switch managed
network.
