Association Table Display Setup
Settings on the Association Table Advanced Page
The Association Table Advanced page contains the following settings:
• Handle Station Alerts as Severity Level
• Maximum number of bytes stored per Station Alert packet
• Maximum Number of Forwarding Table Entries
• Rogue AP Alert Timeout (minutes)
• Aironet Extended Statistics in MIB (awcTpFdbTable)
• Block ALL Inter-Client Communications (PSPF)
• Default Activity Timeout (seconds) Per Device Class
Handle Station Alerts as Severity Level
This setting determines the Severity Level at which Station Alerts are reported in the Event Log. This
setting also appears on the Event Handling Setup page. You can choose from four Severity Levels:
• Fatal Severity Level (System, Protocol, Port)— Fatal-level events indicate an event that prevents
operation of the port or device. For operation to resume, the port or device usually must be reset.
Fatal-level events appear in red in the Event Log.
• Alert Severity Level (System, Protocol, Port, External)—Alert-level messages indicate that you
need to take action to correct the condition and appear in magenta in the Event Log.
• Warning Severity Level (System, Protocol, Port, External)—Warning-level messages indicate that
an error or failure may have occurred and appear in blue in the Event Log.
• Information Severity Level (System, Protocol, Port, External)—Information- level messages notify
you of some sort of event, not fatal (that is, the port has been turned off, the rate setting has been
changed, etc.) and appear in green in the Event Log.
Maximum number of bytes stored per Station Alert packet
This setting determines the maximum number of bytes the access point stores for each Station Alert
packet when packet tracing is enabled. If you use 0 (the default setting), the access point does not store
bytes for Station Alert packets; it only logs the event. See the “Event Handling Setup Page” section on
page 7-21 for instructions on enabling packet tracing.
Maximum Number of Forwarding Table Entries
This setting determines the maximum number of devices that can appear in the Association Table.
Rogue AP Alert Timeout (minutes)
When an access point detects a rogue access point, it sends an alert message to the system log. This
setting specifies the amount of time in minutes the access point transmits the alert message. When the
timeout is reached, the access point stops sending the alert message.
