    I have a rogue AP on my controller.  When I click "locate" it says "no matches found". When I try to find the bssid on my switches I can't find it.  Is it ok to click "manually contain" on the controller?  It is advertising an ssid that is very close to our company guest ssid.

    It is probably not wise to blindly contain an AP due to legal ramifications:

    It is probably best to determine why it was marked rogue by typing " show wms rogue-ap  <bssid>" and take it from there:  https://community.arubanetworks.com/aruba/attachments/aruba/ControllerBasedWLANs/47/2/PDFRogueAPGuide.pdf
