mode
Classify the AP into one of the following categories.
interfering
An AP seen in the RF environment but is not connected to the wired network.
manually-contained
Manually enable denial of service from this AP
neighbor
An neighboring AP whose BSSID is known.
suspected-rogue
A suspected rogue AP that is plugged into the wired side of the network but
may not be an unauthorized device. Automatic shutdown of rogue APs does
not apply to these devices.
rogue

network. You can configure automatic shutdown of rogue APs in the IDS
unauthorized device detection profile.
valid

Usage Guidelines
If AP learning is enabled (with the wms general learn-ap enable command), non-Dell APs connected on the
same wired network as Dell APs are classified as valid APs. If AP learning is disabled, a non-Dell AP is classified as
an unsecure or suspect-unsecure AP.
Example
The following command classifies an interfering AP as a known-interfering AP:
(host) #wms ap 01:00:00:00:00:00 mode known-interfering
