Table 48 lists the rogue detection features in MSS. 

Table 48   Rogue Detection Features

Classification

MSS can classify third-party APs as 
rogues or interfering devices. A 
rogue is a third-party AP whose 
MAC address MSS knows from the 
wired side of the network. An 
interfering device does not have a 
MAC address known on the wired 
side.

MSS can detect rogue clients, locate 
their APs, and issue countermeasures 
against the APs.

Yes

Yes

Permitted 
vendor list

List of OUIs to allow on the network. 
An OUI is the first three octets of a 
MAC address and uniquely identifies 
an AP’s or client’s vendor. 

Yes

No

Permitted SSID 
list

List of SSIDs allowed on the network. 
MSS can issue countermeasures 
against third-party APs sending 
traffic for an SSID that is not on the 
list.

Yes

Yes

Client black list

List of client or AP MAC addresses 
that are not allowed on the wireless 
network. MSS drops all packets from 
these clients or APs.

Yes

Yes

Attack list

List of AP MAC addresses to attack. 
MSS can issue countermeasures 
against these APs whenever they are 
detected on the network. 

Yes

No

Ignore list

List of MAC addresses to ignore 
during RF detection. MSS does not 
classify devices on this list as rogues 
or interfering devices, and does not 
issue countermeasures against them.

Yes

Yes
