System information
Wireless Intrusion Prevention System
New Functions Implementation (DWS-4026/DWL-8600AP)
WIDS/WIPS Limitation
Users must make sure that there is no legitimate APs which are classified as
rogues before enabling the attack feature.
• System shows the classified result and reason on WIDS AP Rogue Classification.
De-auth messages are sent every ten seconds (active mode) or every
second(sentry mode) for performance concern.
• The function is to mitigate, not to block the rogues
If the detected rogue is spoofing the BSSID of the valid managed AP then
the wireless system doesn’t attempt to use the attack.
The de-authentication attack is not effective against Ad hoc networks.
The APs operating on channels outside of the country domain are not
attacked due to the law.
