Field Description
AP Detection for
Radio
To allow the AP radios to perform neighbor AP detection and collect information about
neighbor APs, click Enabled.
To disable neighbor AP detection on the radios, click Disabled.
If you change the AP detection mode, click Apply to save the new settings.
Detected Rogue AP List
Action Click Grant to move the AP from the Detected Rogue AP List to the Known AP List.
Note: The Detected Rouge AP and Known AP lists provide information. The DWL-x600AP
does not have any control over the APs on the list and cannot apply any security policies to
APs detected through the RF scan.
MAC Shows the MAC address of the neighboring AP.
Radio The Radio eld indicates which radio detected the neighboring AP:
•) wlan0 (Radio One)
•) wlan1 (Radio Two)
Beacon Int. Shows the Beacon interval being used by this AP.
Beacon frames are transmitted by an AP at regular intervals to announce the existence
of the wireless network. The default behavior is to send a beacon frame once every 100
milliseconds (or 10 per second).
The Beacon Interval is set on the Radio page.(See “Modifying Radio Settings” on page
40)
Type Indicates the type of device:
•) AP indicates the neighboring device is an AP that supports the IEEE 802.11 Wireless
Networking Framework in Infrastructure Mode.
•) Ad hoc indicates a neighboring station running in Ad hoc Mode. Stations set to ad
hoc mode communicate with each other directly, without the use of a traditional AP.
Ad-hoc mode is an IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networking Framework also referred to as
peer-to-peer mode or an Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS).
SSID The Service Set Identier (SSID) for the AP.
The SSID is an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that uniquely identies a wireless
local area network. It is also referred to as the Network Name.
The SSID is set on the VAP page. (See “Conguring Load Balancing” on page 60)
Privacy Indicates whether there is any security on the neighboring device.
•) Off indicates that the Security mode on the neighboring device is set to None (no
security).
•) On indicates that the neighboring device has some security in place.
•) Security is congured on the AP from the VAP page.
WPA Indicates whether WPA security is on or off for this AP.
Band This indicates the IEEE 802.11 mode being used on this AP. (For example, IEEE 802.11a,
IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g.)
The number shown indicates the mode according to the following map:
•) 2.4 indicates IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11n mode (or a combination of the modes)
•) 5 indicates IEEE 802.11a or 802.11n mode (or both modes)
Channel Shows the Channel on which the AP is currently broadcasting.
The channel denes the portion of the radio spectrum that the radio uses for transmitting
and receiving.
The channel is set in Radio Settings. (See “Modifying Radio Settings” on page 40)
Rate Shows the rate (in megabits per second) at which this AP is currently transmitting.
The current rate will always be one of the rates shown in Supported Rates.
Signal Indicates the strength of the radio signal emitting from this AP. If you hover the mouse
pointer over the bars, a number appears and shows the strength in decibels (dB).
Beacons Shows the total number of beacons received from this AP since it was rst discovered.
Last Beacon Shows the date and time of the last beacon received from this AP.
Rates Shows supported and basic (advertised) rate sets for the neighboring AP. Rates are shown
in megabits per second (Mbps).
All Supported Rates are listed, with Basic Rates shown in bold.
Rate sets are congured on the Radio Settings page. (See “Modifying Radio Settings” on
page 40)
