The SSID field in the Manage Rogues > Rogue AP List report is being displayed in hexagonal format (for example, “x00x00x00x00x00x00x00x00x00”). What causes this?
A. If the SSID contains unprintable characters, the WLSE displays it in hex notation. In this example, the SSID is set to 9 hex zeros. The WLSE displays unprintable characters as \xNN, where NN is the hex value of each character, followed by the length of the SSID in bytes. For example, “\x00″ [1] means that the SSID contains the hex value \x00 and is 1 byte long. In addition, any double quote marks or backslashes that are part of the SSID octets are displayed using a preceeding backslash (for example, \” or \\).
