CHAPTER 32
Chapter 32: Configuring Wireless IDS
Wireless > IDS
Wireless Intrusion Detection Services (IDS) greatly increase the security capabilities of the
SonicWALL wireless security appliances by enabling them 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. Wireless IDS logging and notification can be enabled under
Log > Categories by selecting the WLAN IDS checkbox under Log Categories and Alerts.
Wireless Bridge IDS
When the Radio Role of the wireless security appliance 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).
