Because the neighbor and rogue access points are detected during off-channel scans, it 
typically takes about 10 minutes after the rogue AP detection is enabled for the neighbor 
and rogue access points to be detected and the known list (that is, the database with 
known access points) and unknown list (that is, the database with unknown access 
points) on the wireless controller to be populated.
Note:  
When rogue access point detection is enabled, access points 
intermittently go off channel for short periods, which can affect 
network performance. If security concerns are more important than 
network performance, you can temporarily select a high or 
aggressive rogue access point detection interval. If network 
performance is more important than security concerns, select a low 
or medium rogue access point detection interval, in which case 
security is addressed but network performance is not compromised. 
Under normal circumstances, NETGEAR recommends a low rogue 
access point detection interval.
Rogue AP Mitigation
Select the Enable radio button to enable rogue AP mitigation. Rogue mitigation 
does the following:
• Prevents wireless clients from associating with rogue access points in the 
network.
• Attempts to disconnect clients from rogue access points in the network.
• Performs denial of service (DoS) attacks against rogue access points in the 
network.
To disable rogue AP mitigation, select the Disable radio button.
Note: 
You can configure one or more access points to function in sentry mode 
to monitor the wireless network for faster detection and mitigation of rogue 
access points. For information about sentry mode, see 
Rogue Detection Interval
If rogue AP detection is enabled, select the detection interval from the 
drop-down list:
• Low. With the Low setting, the access point goes off-channel less frequently 
than with the Medium, High, or Aggressive setting. NETGEAR recommends 
the Low setting, which should work well in most network configurations.
•  Medium
•  High
• Aggressive. If you have security concerns, select the Aggressive setting to 
allow frequent scanning.
Alert Severity
If rogue AP detection is enabled, specify the severity of the alarm when a rogue 
access point is detected. Either select the Major or the Minor radio button.
