Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

WLAN services are available in public places, such as banks and airports. Users can connect to the WLANs after associating with corresponding SSIDs. If a rogue AP is deployed and provides spoofing SSIDs similar to authorized SSIDs, the users may be misled and connect to the rogue AP, which brings security risks. To address this problem, configure a fuzzy matching rule to identify spoofing SSIDs. After you create a WIDS spoof SSID profile using the wids-spoof-profile command, run the spoof-ssid command to configure a fuzzy matching rule to identify spoofing SSIDs.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the wids-spoof-profile (WIDS profile view) command to bind the WIDS spoof SSID profile to a WIDS profile to make the WIDS spoof SSID profile take effect.

Example

# Create the WIDS spoof SSID profile office.

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