Reduce unwanted wireless coverage

[CB90021204]

Hi,

I noticed that the wireless networks in my building are broadcasting further than I would like e.g. They are broadcasting into the buildings across the road from my building.

I have Cisco wireless controllers/APs and Prime infrastructure installed using maps for wireless coverage.  From a security perspective, I don't want people to be able to connect outside of my building or be able to see my wireless networks so they could have a crack at hacking.

What is the best approach for reducing the size of the wireless cell or preventing users from being able to connect outside my building.

Thanks,

Disable the data rates of your 802.11 a/b radios.   Disable from 1 Mbps to 11 Mbps.  Make 18 Mbps as Mandatory and the rest as Supported.
