Secure wireless environments using Air Marshal
The MR20 comes equipped with Air Marshal, a built-in wireless
intrusion prevention system (WIPS) for threat detection and attack
remediation. MR20 access points will scan their environment
opportunistically based on user-defined preferences. Alarms and
auto-containment of malicious rogue APs are configured via flexible
remediation policies, ensuring optimal security and performance in
even the most challenging wireless environments.
