Configure Live RF View Setting
Define the parameters that are used in live RF views using Configuration>System>Advanced
Settings>Live RF View Setting option. These parameters are specific to each environment. Tuning the
parameters enables you to see more accurate views.
Under Intrusion Detection and Prevention Regions, specify the dbm values for which the system shows
the intrusion detection and prevention regions in the sensor coverage views.
Detection range is the area over which sensors can reliably detect wireless activity. Intrusion Detection
Display Threshold determines the threshold for this range.
Prevention range is the area over which sensors can prevent unauthorized wireless activity. Intrusion
Prevention Display Threshold determines the threshold for this range.
Both the detection and prevention ranges are affected by parameters in the RF Propagation section.
Note: The reliability of the prevention also depends on the Intrusion Prevention Level selected on the
Configuration>WIPS >Intrusion Prevention page.

1.
Go to Configuration>System>Advanced Settings>Live RF View Setting.
2. Specify the Intrusion Detection Display Threshold.
3. Specify the Intrusion Prevention Display Threshold.
4. Click Save to save the changes.
