wms client
wms client <macaddr> mode {dos|interfering|valid}
Description
This command allows you to classify a wireless client into one of several categories.
Syntax
Usage Guidelines
ArubaOS can automatically determine client classification based on client behavior, but this command allows
you to explicitly classify a client. The classification of a client is used in certain policy enforcement features. For
example, if protect-valid-sta is enabled in the IDS Unauthorized Device Profile, then clients that are classified as
valid cannot connect to non-valid APs.
Example
The following command classifies a client as valid:
(host) #wms client 00:00:A4:34:C9:B3 mode valid
Command History
This command was introduced in ArubaOS 3.0.
