Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Command Line Reference
set radio-profile countermeasures
Enables or disables countermeasures on the AP radios managed by a radio profile. Countermeasures are
packets sent by a radio to prevent clients from being able to use rogue access points.
AP radios can also issue countermeasures against interfering devices. An interfering device is not part of the
Nortel network but also is not a rogue. No client connected to the device has been detected communicating
with any network entity listed in the forwarding database (FDD) of any WSS in the Mobility Domain.
Although the interfering device is not connected to your network, the device might be causing RF interference
with AP radios.
Syntax set radio-profile name countermeasures {all | rogue | configured | none}
Defaults Countermeasures are disabled by default.
Access Enabled.
History
Examples

Caution! Countermeasures affect wireless service on a radio. When an AP radio is
sending countermeasures, the radio is disabled for use by network traffic, until the radio
finishes sending the countermeasures.

attacked.
