wms client
wms client <macaddr>
mode {manually-contain|interfering|valid}
valid-exempt {insert|remove}
Description
This command allows you to classify a wireless client into one of several categories.
Syntax
Parameter Description
client
MAC address of the client.
mode
Classify the client into one of the following categories:
manually-contain
Manually enable denial of service to this client.
interfering
Setting the client mode to interfering makes it part of clients outside the
enterprise
valid
A client that is part of the enterprise.
valid-exempt
Classify the client under this option to exempt from Valid Station Protection
and Valid Station Misassociation Detection.
insert
Add the client to the valid-exempt list and exempt from Valid Station
Protection and Valid Station Misassociation Detection. If the client exists in the
WMS, the classification is set to valid. In case the client does not exist in the
WMS, a client entry is created and then the classification is set to valid.
remove
Remove the client from the list of valid-exempt clients.
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
