We are a Cisco shop that uses the Airwave AMPs for management. We let the AMPs
contain the rogues. It works reasonably well and certainly beats trying to it
do it manually on the controllers. Right now we are seeing 2,279 rogues on our
campus with the biggest category being HP printers.
We do have a policy that tells folks not to do this. But, there is really no
penalty to them for ignoring the policy.
On a related note our legal folks are considering whether to let us continue to
try to contain rogues on campus. Has any other campus been told not to do rogue
containment?

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Rogue AP's
Wireless managers, {cross referenced with NETMAN}
I am wondering if anyone has found an automatic way to block rogue AP’s on your
network. I know I can get a report from Airwave on rogue AP’s, but it seems
like it would be time consuming to go after each of them individually. I am
curious how some of you handle this. Do you have a method for blocking them?
Also, there are other products beginning to broadcast their own ssid as well
including printers, connectify, etc. How do you handle them? Do you even
have policy restricting those from your network?
