Using MUs to Detect Rogue Devices

The access point can use an associated MU that has its rogue AP detection feature enabled to scan
for rogue APs. Once detected, the rogue AP(s) can be moved to the list of allowed devices (if
appropriate) within the Active APs screen. When adding an MU’s detection capabilities with the
access point’s own rogue AP detection functionality, the rogue detection area can be significantly
extended.

To use associated rogue AP enabled MUs to scan for rogue APs:

1. Select Network Configuration -> Wireless -> Rogue AP Detection -> MU Scan from the Mobility

7131 Access Point menu tree.
