Taking countermeasures against rogue device attacks
You can enable the countermeasures on a monitor AP. The monitor AP downloads an attack list from
the AC according to the countermeasure mode and takes countermeasures against detected rogue
devices. The processing methods vary with rogue devices:
If the rogue device is a rogue client, it will be logged out.
If the rogue device is a rogue AP, legal clients will not use the rogue AP to access the WLAN.
If the rogue device is an ad-hoc client, it is denied and ad-hoc clients cannot communicate with
each other.
