marking them as Alert rogue access points (watch for and notify when active), or marking them as 
Contained rogue access points (have between one and four Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access points 
discourage rogue access point clients by sending the clients deauthenticate and disassociate messages 
whenever they associate with the rogue access point).

Cisco WLAN Solution Operating System Security is built around a robust 802.1X AAA (authori-
zation, authentication and accounting) engine, which allows operators to rapidly configure and 
enforce a variety of security policies across the Cisco WLAN Solution.
The 
equipped with system-wide authentication and authorization protocols across all ports and 
interfaces, maximizing system security.
Operating System Security policies are assigned to individual WLANs, and 
 simultaneously broadcast all (up to 16) configured WLANs. This can 
eliminate the need for additional access points, which can increase interference and degrade 
system throughput.
 securely terminates IPSec VPN clients, which can reduce the 
load on centralized VPN concentrators. 
Operating System Security uses the 
 function to continually 
monitor the air space for interference and security breaches, and notify the operator when they 
are detected.
Operating System Security works with industry-standard aaa (authorization, authentication and 
accounting) servers, making system integration simple and easy. 
The Operating System Security solution offers comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 encryption 
algorithms which typically require a large amount of processing power. Rather than assigning 
the encryption tasks to yet another server, the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller can be equipped 
with a VPN/Enhanced Security Module that provides extra hardware required for the most 
demanding security configurations.

Because the Cisco WLAN Solution Radio Resource Management (RRM) function is enabled from the 
factory, the IT department does not need to create a detailed rollout plan to continually monitor access 
points, or to individually update access points, resulting in very low input required from the IT 
department or Wireless LAN manager. This means less money spent deploying, configuring, updating, 
and monitoring the Cisco WLAN Solution.
