We have WCS configured to e-mail rogue alerts to us.  We then
investigate them on the WCS maps and make a decision whether to contain
them.  I have seen rogues in urban areas that I have not contained
because I could not identify them as being within our building.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Automatic Rogue Containment

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

        Does anyone here implement automatic rogue AP containment?  This
has
been something we've been discussing, only to find out that the option
does not seem to be available on our Cisco WLC or WCS.

        Was this a feature that was removed during the lifecycle of the
product?  Any other automatic ways to contain?  Or, do most folks
investigate every rogue AP before containing it?

        Cisco has cited legal ramifications for not having automatic
rogue
containment.  I can understand that containing rogue APs off of our
campus is wrong, but what about if the rogue AP can be triangulated as
definitely existing on our campus?

Thanks,
Brian
