Will you be using the Containment option in the WCS? Or hunting down the
units and removing them from the Network. Could someone point out some of
the pro's and con's to using containment..

With wireless rolling out on a much larger scale on our campus, we are
revising our policy and attitude to be a bit more restrictive in both
philosophy and practice when it comes to UNCOORDINATED rogues. We are also
taking a stab at coordinating not just APs, but also ANY wireless system-
classroom response systems, wireless AV, etc.- trying to keep the
environment somewhat under control as more wireless technologies hit. Not
always restrictive per se, but more coordinated.

We too have the policy of no rogues, but I admit I don't go looking for
them.  I know we have them, probably a lot more than I know of, but as long
as they aren't causing problems, I don't really care.   Worst things I've
seen are mis-configured APs that want to be a DHCP server and try handing
out IPs on the wired side.

I just wanted to here from other schools on what they are doing about
Rogues. Is your policy not to allow them but don't do too much to prevent
them.
Do you let the dorms be the wild wild west? Or are you actively finding them
and removing them through one means or another. We are an Aruba networks
shop
and have some great capabilities for Rogue detection and prevention and
wanted to get a feel what other schools process is concerning them. Also any
horror stories that you would like to share?
