HPE6-A78 practice question 7 of 25
Your ArubaoS solution has detected a rogue AP with Wireless intrusion Prevention (WIP). Which information about the detected radio can best help you to locate the rogue device?
Full set: 168 questionsTo physically locate a rogue AP, the most useful information is the list of authorized Aruba APs that can detect it. The Aruba Wireless Intrusion Prevention (WIP) system shows which APs (the "detecting devices") can hear the rogue radio and at what signal strength (RSSI). By knowing the physical locations of these detecting APs and their reported signal strengths for the rogue, an administrator can triangulate the approximate physical location of the unauthorized device.
A. The match method indicates how the device was classified as rogue (e.g., seen on the wired network), not its physical location.
C. The match type specifies the rule that triggered the classification (e.g., "unsecure AP"), which does not help in physical location.
D. The confidence level is a metric of certainty that the device is a rogue, not an indicator of its physical coordinates.
1. Aruba. (2022). ArubaOS 8.11.0.0 User Guide. Hewlett Packard Enterprise. In the "Intrusion Detection and Protection" chapter, the section on "Locating a Rogue AP" describes using the signal strength information from detecting APs to find the device. (p. 1245).
2. Aruba. (2023). Aruba Central User Guide. Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The "Monitoring Rogues and Interferers" section shows that the UI displays "Detected by" information, listing the APs that see the rogue, which is used for location. (Security > IDS/IPS > Rogues tab).
