Parameter poll-interval poll-retries propagate-wiredmacs sta-ageout-interval stat-update Description Range Interval, in milliseconds, for communication between the controller and Dell AMs. The controller contacts the AM at this interval to download AP to station associations, update policy configuration changes, and download AP and station statistics. (any) Default 60000 millisecond s (1 minute) Maximum number of failed polling (any) 2 attempts before the polled AM is considered to be down. Enables the propagation of the - gateway wired MAC information. enabled Time, in minutes, that a client remains unseen by any probes before it is deleted from the database. 0 and 21474836 47 minutes 30 minutes Enables statistics updating in the - database. enabled Usage Guidelines By default, non-Dell APs that are connected on the same wired networks as Dell APs are classified as "rogue" APs. Enabling AP learning classifies non-Dell APs as "valid" APs. Typically, you would want to enable AP learning in environments with large numbers of existing non-Dell APs and leave AP learning enabled until all APs in the network have been detected and classified as valid. Then, disable AP learning and reclassify any unknown APs as interfering. VLAN Trunking In deployments where Dell APs are not placed on every VLAN and where it is not possible to trunk all VLANs to a Dell AP, enable the parameter learned-system-wired-mac. When this is enabled, ArubaOS is able to classify rogues on all the VLANs that belong to the Dell controller, as long as Dell APs can see the rogues in the air. If there are VLANs in the network residing on a third party controller and if those VLANs are trunked to a port on the Dell controller, enabling this feature will allow detection of rogues on those VLANs as well. Master/Local When learned-system-wired-mac is enabled in a master/local deployment, the learning of Wired and Gateway MACs will happen at each local controller. For topologies with local controllers in geographical locations, the local controller collects the Wired and Gateway MAC info and passes it to the APs that are connected to it. Even though the locals do the collection of Wired and Gateway MACs, the master is still be responsible for classification. Example The following command enables AP learning: (host)(IDS WMS General Profile) #learn-ap To disable AP learning: (host)(IDS WMS General Profile) #no learn-ap 442| ids wms-general-profile Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS 6.5.x | Reference Guide
