Parameter Description Range
Defaul
t
cfg-valid-11a-channel
List of valid 802.11a channels that third-
party APs are allowed to use.
34-165 N/A
cfg-valid-11g-channel
List of valid 802.11b/g channels that third-
party APs are allowed to use.
1-14 N/A
classification
Enable/disable rogue AP classification. A
rogue AP is one that is unauthorized and
plugged into the wired side of the network.
Any other AP seen in the RF environment
that is not part of the valid enterprise
network is considered to be interfering — it
has the potential to cause RF interference
but it is not connected to the wired network
and thus does not represent a direct
threat.
— true
clone
Name of an existing IDS rate thresholds
profile from which parameter values are
copied.
— —
detect-adhoc-network
Enable detection of adhoc networks. — false
detect-adhoc-using-valid-
ssid
Enable/disable detection of adhoc
networks using valid/protected SSIDs
— enable
detect-bad-wep
Enables detection of WEP initialization
vectors that are known to be weak and/or
repeating. A primary means of cracking
WEP keys is to capture 802.11 frames over
an extended period of time and search for
implementations that are still used by
many legacy devices.
— false
detect-ht-greenfield
Enables or disables detection of high-
throughput devices advertising greenfield
preamble capability.
— false
detect-invalid-mac-oui
Enables checking of the first three bytes of
a MAC address, known as the
organizationally unique identifier (OUI),
assigned by the IEEE to known
manufacturers. Often clients using a
spoofed MAC address do not use a valid
OUI and instead use a randomly generated
MAC address. Enabling MAC OUI checking
causes an alarm to be triggered if an
unrecognized MAC address is in use.
— false
detect-misconfigured-ap
Enables detection of misconfigured APs.
An AP is classified as misconfigured if it is
classified as valid and does not meet any
of the following configurable parameters:
- valid channels
- encryption type
- list of valid AP MAC OUIs
- valid SSID list
— false
