Cisco Adaptive wIPS System Architecture
This document will address the wIPS solution for Over-the-Air Attacks. Cisco’s Adaptive Wireless
Intrusion Prevention System (wIPS) is made up of a number of components that work together to provide
a unified security monitoring solution. In addition to the WLAN Controllers, Access Points and Prime
Infrastructure components that currently comprise Cisco’s Unified Wireless Networking solution; the
wIPS portion introduces two additional components. These additional hardware components include
Access Points in wIPS mode and the Mobility Services Engine running the wIPS service software.
