set rfdetect signature
Enables AP signatures. An AP signature is a set of bits in a management frame sent by an AP that identifies
that AP to WSS Software. If someone attempts to spoof management packets from a Nortel AP, WSS
Software can detect the spoof attempt.
Syntax
set rfdetect signature {enable | disable}
Defaults
AP signatures are disabled by default.
Access
Enabled.
History
Introduced in WSS Software Version 4.0.
Usage
The command applies only to APs managed by the WSS on which you enter the
command. To enable signatures on all APs in a Mobility Domain, enter the command on each WSS
in the Mobility Domain.
Examples
The following command enables AP signatures on a WSS:
23x0# set rfdetect signature enable
success: signature is now enabled.
set rfdetect ssid-list
Adds an SSID to the permitted SSID list.The permitted SSID list specifies the SSIDs that are allowed on the
network. If WSS Software detects packets for an SSID that is not on the list, the AP that sent the packets is
classified as a rogue. WSS Software issues countermeasures against the rogue if they are enabled.
Syntax
set rfdetect ssid-list ssid-name
Defaults
The permitted SSID list is empty by default and all SSIDs are allowed. However, after
you add an entry to the list, WSS Software allows traffic only for the SSIDs that are on the list.
enable Enables AP signatures.
disable Disables AP signatures.
Note. You must use the same AP signature setting (enabled or disabled) on all WSSs in
a Mobility Domain.
ssid-name SSID name you want to add to the permitted SSID list.
