Creating a Rogue AP Detection Policy

You can use a Rogue AP Detection policy to define classification rules that determine how detected access points are evaluated and labeled across selected venues. When applied, the policy controls rogue AP detection behavior at the venue level by activating a single classification profile per venue.
Note: Only one Rogue AP Detection policy can be active at a venue at any time. Activating a policy automatically enables Rogue AP Detection for the selected venue if it is currently disabled.
Complete the following steps to create and apply a Rogue AP Detection policy.
  1. Add the Rogue AP Detection service to your tenant account. From the navigation bar, select Network Control > Service Catalog. Alternatively, you can select Network Control > My Services, then click Add Service.
  2. Find the Rogue AP Detection tile and click Add.
    The Add Rogue AP Detection page is displayed.
