RUCKUS RCWA Exam - Topic 6 Question 12 Discussion

Posted by Clay on Apr 13, 2026 at 12:41 AM

Which three of these rule types are available when configuring a WIPS policy in SmartZone? (Choose three.)

Suggested Answer: B, C, E

The Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) in SmartZone continuously monitors the RF environment to detect and mitigate rogue or malicious behavior.

According to RUCKUS One Online Help -- WIPS Policy Configuration, available rule types include:

(B) High RSSI: Detects potential rogue APs or clients broadcasting at unusually strong signal levels that suggest proximity or spoofing attempts.

(C) NAV Abuse: Identifies devices misusing the Network Allocation Vector field to monopolize airtime, degrading performance for other users.

(E) SSID Spoofing: Detects devices broadcasting identical SSIDs to legitimate WLANs, often used in man-in-the-middle or phishing attacks.

Other listed options, such as Short GI (Guard Interval) and Same Network, are PHY or configuration settings, not WIPS rules. Excessive Power detection is handled indirectly via High RSSI thresholds.

I'm a bit confused; I thought SSID Spoofing was related to WIPS, but I can't recall if it's actually a rule type.

I think I remember something about High RSSI and Excessive Power being part of WIPS policies, but I'm not entirely sure about the third one.
