WIPS Statistics

A WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Protection System) detects the presence of unauthorized access points. Unauthorized attempts to access the WLAN is generally accompanied by intruding clients finding network vulnerabilities. Basic forms of this behavior can be monitored and reported without a dedicated WIPS deployment. When the parameters exceed a configurable threshold, the controller or service platform generates a SNMP trap and reports the result via the management interfaces. Basic WIPS functionality does not require monitoring APs and does not perform off-channel scanning.
