Monitor a Rogue
MAP radios automatically scan the RF spectrum for other devices 
transmitting in the same spectrum. The RF scans discover other 3Com 
radios, as well as third-party, non-3Com transmitters. MSS considers the 
non-3Com transmitters to be potential rogues, and places them on a 
rogue list.
A rogue access point is an access point that is not authorized to operate 
in your network. Rogue access points and their clients undermine the 
security of an enterprise network by potentially allowing unchallenged 
access to the network by any wireless user or client in the physical vicinity. 
Rogue access points and users can also interfere with the operation of 
your enterprise network. You can configure 3Com to automatically use 
countermeasures against rogue APs to disable them. 
Not all access points placed on the rogue list are “hostile” rogues. You 
may want to move some of the access points from the rogue list to a 
known devices list or a third-party AP list. For more information about 
this topic as well as more detailed information about combatting rogues, 
see the chapter “Detecting and Combatting Rogue Devices” in the 
Wireless LAN Switch Manager Reference Manual
