Ignoring Friendly Third-Party Devices 431
Ignoring Friendly
Third-Party Devices
By default, when countermeasures are enabled, MSS considers any
third-party transmitter to be a rogue device and can send
countermeasures to prevent clients from using that device. To prevent
MSS from sending countermeasures against a friendly device, add the
device to the known addresses list.
To add a device to the ignore list
1 In the Filtered List of rogues on the Rogue Detection tab, select the
devices you want to add to the ignore list.
2 Click on the toolbar. The Select Devices to Create Ignore List dialog is
displayed.
3 If the switch(es) on which you are configuring the ignore list are in a
Mobility Domain, select the Mobility Domain. Otherwise, select None.
4 Click Next to select to select all the switches that are listed, or click Next
to individual switches to select them.
5 Click OK. The devices are added to the ignore list and disappear from the
Filtered List of rogues.
Adding a Device to
the Attack List
An attack list is a switch’s list of AP MAC addresses to attack whenever
they are present on the network.
1 In the Filtered List of rogues on the Rogue Detection tab, select the
devices you want to attack.
2 Click on the toolbar. The Select Devices dialog is displayed.
3 If the switch(es) on which you are configuring the attack list are in a
Mobility Domain, select the Mobility Domain. Otherwise, select None.
4 Click Next to Select to select all the switches that are listed, or click Next
to individual switches to select them.
5 Click OK. The devices are added to the attack list. If countermeasures are
enabled, MSS uses them to attack the devices on the list.
