Chapter 27: Configuring Wireless IDS
Wireless > IDS
Wireless Intrusion Detection Services (WIDS) greatly increase the security capabilities of the TZ 50
Wireless/TZ 150 Wireless/TZ 170 Wireless by enabling it to recognize and even take
countermeasures against the most common types of illicit wireless activity. WIDS consists of three
types of services, namely, Sequence Number Analysis, Association Flood Detection, and Rogue
Access Point Detection. WIDS logging and notification can be enabled under Log > Categories by
selecting the WIDS checkbox under Log Categories and Alerts.
Wireless Bridge IDS
When the Radio Role of the TZ 170 Wireless is set to a Wireless Bridge mode, Rogue Access Point
Detection defaults to active mode (actively scanning for other Access Points using probes on all
channels).
