Neighbor AP Detection Commands
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Wireless)
Command Usage
• First set the scan duration and interval before enabling scanning.
• While the access point scans a channel for neighbor APs, wireless
clients will not be able to connect to the access point. Therefore,
frequent scanning or scans of a long duration will degrade the access
point’s performance. If more extensive scanning is required, use the
dedicated scanning mode.
• The detected AP database can be viewed using the show ap-detection
table command.
• When enabled, the access point sends Syslog and SNMP trap
messages for AP detection scanning.
Example
HP420(if-wireless g)#ap-detection enable periodic
configure either syslog or trap or both to receive the rogue
APs detected.
HP420(if-wireless g)#
ap-detection duration
This command sets the length of time for each AP scan.
Syntax

milliseconds - The time taken for an AP scan.
(Range: 50 -1000 milliseconds)
Default Setting
350 milliseconds

Command Usage
• During a scan, client access may be disrupted and new clients may
not be able to associate to the access point. If clients experience
severe disruption, reduce the scan duration time.
