METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOCATING ROGUE ACCESS POINT SWITCH PORTS IN A WIRELESS NETWORK
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for locating and disabling the. switch port of a rogue wireless access point. In one embodiment, a network management device is configured to detect the presence of a rogue access point on a managed wireless network. Once detected, the management device may then instruct a special client, such as a scanning AP, to associate with the rogue access point and send a discovery packet through the rogue access point to network management device. The network management device upon receiving the discovery packet may thereby determine that the rogue access point is connected to a network managed by said network device. The network device may then utilize information contained in the discovery packet to locate the switch port to which the rogue access .point is connected, and ultimately disable the switch port to which the rogue access point is connected.
