John,
Does AMPs leverage any blocking at the switch level or is done by
jamming wireless frequencies? If it is jamming frequencies, don’t you run
the risk of blocking non campus residential home AP’s?

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?

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?
