This manual uses the following definitions of access point terms:

Cloud-managed access point. A NETGEAR access point that is installed at a location and is controlled
by the application.

Neighbor access point. An access point that is within the radio range of and discovered by a
cloud-managed access point. The access point can be another cloud managed access point or an
access point that is not cloud managed. The access point can be known, unknown, or rogue.

Rogue access point. An access point that is broadcasting an SSID that is identical to the SSID of a
cloud-managed access point. This type of rogue access point is also referred to as an evil twin. However,
a cloud-managed access point can be rogue if it is deployed at another location or belongs to another
user.

Known AP. Either a NETGEAR access point that is cloud managed and that the application automatically
classified as a known access point or another access point that is not cloud managed and that you or
a collaborator classified as a known access point.

Unknown AP. An unknown access point that is within the radio range of and discovered by a cloud
managed access point and that you or a collaborator could mark as a known access point. A
cloud-managed access point can be unknown if it is deployed at another location or belongs to another
user.
