6.10.2 Configuring the Probe Table
Define enhanced probes to detect rogue MUs within the network. An AP300 transmits beacons and the MUs sends a probe
request to the AP for association. An AP300 (on receipt of the probe request) sends a probe response and associates to
the MU.
When using an enhanced probe, an AP300 sends a probe response to the MU to associate. At the same time, the AP
forwards the MU’s probe request information to the switch. The switch maintains a table of the probe requests the AP300
receives from MUs. In conjunction with the Motorola Solutions RF Management application, the AP locates the rogue MU
and displays its location within a Motorola Solutions RFMS maintained site map.
To configure enhanced beacons:
1. Select Security > Enhanced Probe/Beacon Table from the main menu tree.
Allowed Displays all the channels available to the AP. The channel list is country specific and differs from

and use the mouse to select multiple channels. The switch uses an 802.11a radio to scan the
selected channels to detect any non-adopted or rogue AP’s.
<- Remove Select the channel’s frequency from the Configured list box and click <- Remove to remove a
channel from the list of channels provided to the switch.
