Column Description
Suspect Match Types
Describes how an AP was classified as a suspected rogue AP.
Helper Ap BSSID
BSSID of the AP or AM that helped classify a rogue AP.
AP name
Names of APs that are able to see the specified MAC address.
Match Time
Time the AP was identified as a rogue AP.
Confidence Level
Shows the level of confidence that the AP was classified correctly for each
match type.The suspected-rogue classification mechanism are:
l Each mechanism that causes a suspected-rogue classification is assigned a
confidence level increment of 20%.
l AP classification rules have a configured confidence level.
l When a mechanism matches a previously unmatched mechanism, the
confidence level increment associated with that mechanism is added to the
current confidence level (the confident level starts at zero).
l The confidence level is capped at 100%.
If your controller reboots, your suspected-rogue APs are not checked against
any new rules that were configured after the reboot. Without this restriction, all
the mechanisms that classified your APs as suspected-rogue may trigger again
causing the confidence level to surpass their cap of 100%. You can explicitly
mark an AP as “interfering” to trigger all new rules to match against it.
