I have a Wirelles LAN composed of 4 WISM controllers mounted on 2 6513 catalyst . On the ACCESS switch I can see a lot of abnormal traffic that are in use in the port . After sniffing this traffic I have clear that was WIRELESS broacast traffic in particular : SSID=Broadcast Malformed Packet.

How to reduce this traffic ? I have to proceed in the WISM or just cut all the broacast strom over the switch ?

thank for any help
