Fighting fires:

When incidents occur, WLAN protocol analyzers and RF spectrum analyzers can be used to investigate and respond. Although most analyzers are portable, running on laptops or PDAs, some WIPS can temporarily turn a sensor or AP into a remote analyzer. This is done by connecting to a sensor or AP from a WIPS console, then tuning it to a specified channel to capture remote traffic for analysis at the central site.

During incident response, you may implement stop-loss actions or long-term resolutions. To automate the former, you can use a WIPS to break wireless associations and stop traffic from entering the wired network. A WIPS can also assist with the latter by estimating an intruder’s location. In the end, you will probably have to send someone on-site with a portable analyzer to find and physically remove the intruder.
