Management Frame Protection
Wireless Intrusion Detection System (IDS)-Management Frame Protection (MFP), which provides
for the authentication of 802.11 management frames by the wireless network infrastructure, was
introduced with
Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(8)JA
. This release enhances MFP support and
is now available for Cisco Aironet 802.11a/b/g CardBus Wireless LAN Client Adapters, Wireless
PCI Adapters, and Autonomous Access Points running in root, repeater, workgroup bridge, and
non-root bridge mode. MFP adds security to the MAC management layer of 802.11 connectivity by
cryptographically hashing the management frames and generating a Message Integrity Check
(MIC) during network connection. This release allows a Cisco Aironet 802.11a/b/g CardBus
Wireless LAN Client Adapter or Wireless PCI Adapter to detect a spoofed management frame at
the first instance of an attack and generate an intrusion detection system (IDS) alert to the device
interface. Autonomous access points that detect a spoofed management frame from a client or
another access point will also generate an IDS alert that is sent to the Cisco Wireless LAN
Solution Engine (WLSE), as shown in Figure 2. In order to take advantage of the MFP, the clients
must support Cisco Compatible Extensions Version 5 devices. For more details, see the Cisco
Compatible Extensions program Webpage at:
