Sensor Settings for WIDP in Provisioning Profiles

In the Sensor tab, you can enable or disable the Wireless Intrusion Detection and Prevention (WIDP) sensor. SonicWave appliances can function as both an access point and as a sensor to detect any unauthorized access point connected to a SonicWall network.

In earlier releases, access point or virtual access point functionality is disabled if this option is selected.

To configure the Sensor screen options

1. Select Enable WIDP Sensor to have the access point operate as a WIDP sensor. This option is not selected by default.
2. From the drop-down menu, select the schedule for when the access point operates as a WIDP sensor or select Create new Schedule… to specify a different time. The default is Always on.
