Figure 8-22 Wireless IPS screen - WIPS Events - MU Anomaly tab
MU Anomaly events are suspicious events by wireless clients that can compromise the security and stability of the network.
Use the MU Anomaly screen to set the intervals clients can be filtered upon the generation of each event.
Filter Expiration Set the duration an event generating client is filtered. This creates a special ACL entry,
and frames coming from the client are dropped. The default setting is 0 seconds.
This value is applicable across the RF Domain. If a station is detected performing an attack
and is filtered by an access point, the information is passed to the domain controller. The
domain controller then propagates this information to all the access points in the RF
Domain.
Client Threshold Set the client threshold after which the filter is triggered and an event generated.
Radio Threshold Set the radio threshold after which an event is recorded to the event history.
