2. Click the Configuration tab.
3. Within the Collection Settings field, set the Detection Window interval (in seconds) the switch
uses to scan for MU violations. The available range is from 5 - 300 seconds with a default value of 5
seconds.
4. Refer to the Violation Parameters field to define threshold values that trigger an alarm:
Violation Type Displays the name of the violation for which threshold values are
set in the MU, radio and switch columns.
Mobile Unit Set the MU threshold value for each violation type. If exceeded, the
MU will be filtered and displayed within the Filtered MUs screen.
Set the values appropriately in respect to the number of MUs
within the switch managed network and how often they are
associating/disassociating, and have their authentication and
encryption credentials verified.
Radio Set the radio threshold value for each violation type. If exceeded,
the MU is filtered and displayed within the Filtered MUs screen.
Switch Set the switch’s threshold value for each violation type. If
exceeded, the offending MU is filtered (from the switch) and
displayed within the Filtered MUs screen.
Time to Filter Set the Time to Filter interval (in seconds) the switch uses to filter
out MUs defined as committing a violation. Refer to Viewing
Filtered MUs on page 6-12 to review the contents of the MUs
filtered thus far.
CAUTION Setting MU threshold values too low can jeopardize MU performance or break
the MU’s connection.
