1. A method for security and monitoring within a worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) network comprising:
- monitoring, by one or more sensors, communications activity on one or more channels;
providing a report of the monitored communications activity from each of the one or more sensors to a server;
analyzing, by the server, the reports of the monitored communication activity for detection of one or more system incidents; and
triggering, by the server, in response to detection of one or more incidents, an incident notification.

19. A method for security and monitoring within a worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) network comprising:
-
communicating, by at least one sensor, with an unknown station; communicating a signature packet to the unknown station from the at least one sensor; determine, by the signature detector within the WiMAX network, if the signature packet is received and is legitimate; and when the signature packet is not received, flagging the unknown station as a rogue station. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
