DWS-1008 User's Manual
Enabling Countermeasures
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.
Countermeasures are disabled by default. You can enable them on an individual radio profile
basis. To enable countermeasures on a radio profile, use the following command:
set radio-profile name countermeasures {all | rogue}
The all option enables or disables countermeasures for rogues and for interfering devices.
The rogue option enables or disables countermeasures for rogues only.
The following command enables countermeasures in radio profile radprof3 for rogues only:
DWS-1008# set radio-profile radprof3 countermeasures rogue
success: change accepted.
To disable countermeasures on a radio profile, use the following command:
clear radio-profile name countermeasures
The following command disables countermeasures in radio profile radprof3:
DWS-1008# clear radio-profile radprof3 countermeasures
success: change accepted.
Disabling or Reenabling Active Scan
When active scanning is enabled, the AP radios managed by the switch look for rogue devices
by sending probe any frames (probes with a null SSID name), to solicit probe responses from
other APs.
Active scan is enabled by default. You can disable or reenable the feature on an individual
radio profile basis. To disable or reenable active scan on a radio profile, use the following
command:
set radio-profile name active-scan {enable | disable}
The following command disables active scan in radio profile radprof3:
DWS-1008# set radio-profile radprof3 active-scan disable
success: change accepted.
