Set the AP Class Type to Friendly.. If the WLC detects a rogue AP but the administrator verifies that it is legitimate, the correct operational response is to classify it as Friendly. Manual containment is used against malicious or unauthorized rogues and can create legal and operational problems if used against a legitimate AP. Removing the AP from WLC management does not correctly classify the rogue alarm. Cisco CCNA 200-301 v1.1 Network Access includes rogue AP handling because wireless security is partly about classification and policy, not just encryption. Setting the AP Class Type to Friendly tells the WLC that this AP is known and accepted, which suppresses inappropriate rogue treatment while preserving monitoring visibility. The corrected answer is to set the AP Class Type to Friendly.
