Wireless Access

Can anyone tell me what the following log entry actually means? I am seeing quite a few entries like this on a few APs and have had reports of clients dropping their connection. I have no specific client to debug at this point so I am looking at the AP logs.  What I see looks like users getting blacklisted for some user defined  reason. Am I right?

user-defined typically means that users are being blacklisted by a rule.  Disable blacklisting in your Virtual AP.

Thanks cjoseph.

I thought I might be dealing with a client black list issue.

Is there any way to determine what the actual user-defined reason might be?

Thanks in advance.

It does not get more specific than that:  http://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/ArubaOS_64x_WebHelp/Web_Help_Index.htm#ArubaFrameStyles/1CommandList/show_ap_blacklist_client.htm

It could be an ACL.

Thanks again.

I'll have a review of my ACLs.

Cheers
