Wait Time to
Determine AP Status Define a wait time in either Seconds (10 - 600) or Minutes (1 - 10) before a detected AP is interpreted as
a rogue (unsanctioned) device, and potentially removed. The default interval is 1 minute.
Ageout for AP Entries Set the interval the WIPS policy uses to ageout rogue devices. Set the policy in either Seconds (30 -
86,400), Minutes (1- 1,440), Hours (1 - 24) or Days (1). The default setting is 5 minutes.
Interferer Threshold Specify a RSSI threshold (from -100 to -10 dBm) after which a detected Access Point is classified as an
interferer (rogue device).
Recurring Event
Interval Set an interval that, when exceeded, duplicates a rogue AP event if the rogue devices is still active
(detected) in the network. The default setting is 5 minutes.
Air Termination Select this option to enable the termination of detected rogue AP devices. Air termination lets you
terminate the connection between your wireless LAN and any Access Point or client associated with it. If
the device is an Access Point, all clients dis-associated with the Access Point. If the device is a client, its
connection with the Access Point is terminated. This setting is disabled by default.
Air Termination
Channel Switch Select this option to allow neighboring Access Points to switch channels for rogue AP termination. This
setting is disabled by default.

rogue devices. The default setting is manual.
