Ad-hoc network
detected
• Detection. A group of wireless access points are part of an
ad hoc network that might broadcast the same SSID as the
secured wireless network.
• Result. Wireless
security might be compromised.
Note: The IDS detects ad hoc networks, but the IPS
does not take
action against ad hoc networks.

Ad-hoc network with
wired connectivity

AP property
changed
• Detection. Unauthorized changes such as a change of SSID,
security settings, or channel are made on a known wireless
access point in the network.
• Res
ult. Wireless
security is compromised and clients cannot
connect to the wireless access point.
Note: The IDS detects that the properties of a known wireless
access point
in the network are changed, but the IPS does not take
action.
The changes that the IDS detects are listed in a table. The affected
wireless
access point is identified by its MAC address. To correct
the situation, access the web management interface of the affected
wireless access point, and reverse the changes.
To remove the detected chan
ges from the t
