Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You can configure the WIDS function on a device to detect and counter rogue devices on a WLAN. The WIDS function also enables the device to detect attacks and add devices launching the attacks to a dynamic blacklist. Packets sent from the blacklisted devices will be rejected to protect authorized users.

After you create a WIDS profile using the wids-profile command, you can configure APs to detect and counter rogue or interference devices, and detect attacks in the profile.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the wids-profile (AP group view and AP view) command to bind the WIDS profile to an AP group or AP so that the WIDS profile can take effect.

Example

# Create the WIDS profile office.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] wlan 
[HUAWEI-wlan-view] wids-profile name office
[HUAWEI-wlan-wids-prof-office]
