Overview
Introduces the application, its security functions, system requirements, and basic setup workflows.
Introduction to the Rogue Management and aWIPS application
The Rogue Management application is an optional package for Catalyst Center.
About Rogue Management
Outlines the Rogue Management application in Catalyst Center, which detects and classifies unauthorized APs to mitigate security risks. Details the classification process for rogue devices, including Rogue on wire, Honeypot, Interferer, and Neighbor states, to help administrators identify and monitor potential network threats effectively.
About Advanced Wireless Intrusion Prevention System
Introduces the Cisco Advanced Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (aWIPS), which integrates with Catalyst Center to provide comprehensive wireless threat detection. Details the system's monitoring capabilities and lists the specific denial of service (DoS) attack signatures, including various flood and impersonation techniques, that it can proactively identify and mitigate.
Scale information
Details the supported capacity for rogue APs, clients, and aWIPS events across various Catalyst Center appliances. Outlines recommended WLC configurations to optimize rogue detection performance by filtering update volume and reducing reporting noise in the management interface.
Basic setup workflow
Guides you through the basic setup workflow for the Rogue Management and aWIPS application in Catalyst Center. This includes installing the package, discovering devices, designing the network hierarchy, and configuring optional integrations like Cisco ISE and Cisco Spaces/CMX to ensure effective threat monitoring and management.
