Configuring Countermeasures
You can enable MSS to use countermeasures against rogues.
Countermeasures consist of packets that interfere with a client’s ability to
use the rogue. Countermeasures are disabled by default. When you
enable them, all devices of interest that are not in the known devices list
become viable targets for countermeasures.
Countermeasures are enabled on an individual radio profile basis. When
you create a radio profile, you can apply it to specified service profiles or
to individual radios. The following example shows how to enable
countermeasures in a radio profile, then apply the radio profile to MAP
radios.
To enable countermeasures:
1 In the Equipment section of the Organizer panel, right-click the icon for a
WX switch, and select Edit from the menu.
2 Select Wireless at the top of the wizard, if not already selected.
3 Select Radio Profile from the organizer list on the left side of the page.
4 Select New Radio Profile. The Create Radio Profile wizard appears.
5 In the Name box, type the name of the radio profile (1 to 16 characters,
with no spaces or tabs).
