Disable Rogue AP in Cisco WLC 2504

Hi is there any way to disable External SSID's, as people are creating very disturbing names on their phones to use the hotspot, which is creating problems for younger students? Can we disable it in Cisco WLC 2504? It will be very helpful if anyone has got a solution for it. #RogueAP #wireless #ciscowlc2504

Make sure to get LEGAL representation before embarking on this journey.

And be aware you will be trying to jam their service to make it unusable - you cannot stop them broadcasting other than by asking them.

Like @Leo Laohoo says - get legal advice before starting any containment or jamming as it is illegal in most countries and the penalties can be severe.
