526 RF Detection Commands
NN47250-100 (Version 02.51)
Defaults
WSS Software reports all non-Nortel BSSIDs detected during an RF scan.
Access
Enabled.
History
Introduced in WSS Software Version 3.0.
Usage
Use this command to identify third-party APs and other devices you are already aware of
and do not want WSS Software to report following RF scans.
If you try to initiate countermeasures against a device on the ignore list, the ignore list takes precedence and
WSS Software does not issue the countermeasures. Countermeasures apply only to rogue devices.
If you add a device that WSS Software has classified as a rogue to the permitted vendor list or permitted SSID
list, but not to the ignore list, WSS Software can still classify the device as a rogue. Adding an entry to the
permitted vendor list or permitted SSID list merely indicates that the device is from an allowed manufacturer
or is using an allowed SSID. However, to cause WSS Software to stop classifying the device as a rogue, you
must add the device’s MAC address to the ignore list.
Examples
The following command configures WSS Software to ignore BSSID
aa:bb:cc:11:22:33 during RF scans:
23x0# set rfdetect ignore aa:bb:cc:11:22:33
success: MAC aa:bb:cc:11:22:33 is now ignored.

set rfdetect log
Disables or reenables generation of log messages when rogues are detected or when they disappear.
Syntax
set rfdetect log {enable | disable}
Defaults
RF detection logging is enabled by default.
Access
Enabled.
History
Introduced in WSS Software Version 3.0.
Usage
The log messages for rogues are generated only on the seed and appear only in the seed’s
log message buffer. Use the show log buffer command to display the messages in the seed switch’s
log message buffer.
Examples
The following command enables RF detection logging for the Mobility Domain
managed by this seed switch:
23x0# set rfdetect log enable
success: rfdetect logging is enabled.
enable Enables logging of rogues.
disable Disables logging of rogues.
