How we scan for unauthorized APs

In addition to the 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios, our Mist APs also contain a third radio dedicated to scanning. This radio is used for detecting Rogue, Neighbor, and Honeypot APs on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radio bands. This means that regardless of which radios you have enabled on your AP (2.4GHz or 5GHz), it will still be able to detect unauthorized APs at any frequency using the scanning radio.
