RingMaster Management Guide - Juniper Networks

Displaying Rogue Information
To display rogue information, select the Monitor button on the main RingMaster Navigation Bar and
click on Details in the Alarm Summary area to see the Alarms Detail window below.
Each rogue is listed only once, even if multiple entries for it appear in the Alarms log. If a rogue is
detected during three polling intervals, separate entries for each interval appear in the Alarms log.
You can adjust selection criteria on the fault dashboard to filter an alarm list to display the following
types of entries:
❑ Rogue APs — Unauthorized APs on the Trapeze network.
❑ Interfering APs — Devices that are not part of the Trapeze network but also are not rogues.
No clients connected to these devices have been detected communicating with any network
entity listed in the forwarding database (FDB) of any MX in a Mobility Domain. Although
interfering devices are not connected to your network, they might be causing RF interference
with AP radios.
❑ Suspect APs — Devices that are not part of the Trapeze network and are suspected as rogues
❑ Ad-hoc clients — Clients configured to communicate wirelessly outside of the network
infrastructure. Ad-hoc clients are not necessarily malicious, but they steal bandwidth from your
infrastructure users. Ad-hoc clients are further categorized into rogues and interfering devices.
The word Rogue or Interfering appears in parentheses next to the word Ad-hoc.
