NetStumbler It has many uses: • Verify that your network is set up the way you intended. • Find locations with poor coverage in your WLAN. • Detect other networks that may be causing interference on your network. • Detect unauthorized "rogue" access points in your workplace. • Help aim directional antennas for long-haul WLAN links. • Use it recreationally for WarDriving
Wireless Enumeration 2 Kismet – Technical aspects Category (Networking/Connectivity) • Is a 802.11 Layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system. • It will work with any wireless card which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic.

Kismet • identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting standard named networks • detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden networks, & • infering the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data traffic.
Wireless Enumeration 3 AirSnort– Technical aspects Category (Networking/Connectivity) A wireless LAN (WLAN) tool which recovers encryption keys. It operates by passively monitoring transmissions, computing the encryption key when enough packets have been gathered. References: Download AirSnort software AirSnort Homepage AirSnort FAQ
Wireless Enumeration 4 Airopeek– Technical aspects Category (Networking/Connectivity) • provides network engineers with the expert diagnostics they need to deploy, secure, and troubleshoot wireless LANs • covers the full spectrum of wireless LAN management requirements, including site surveys, security assessments, client troubleshooting, WLAN monitoring, remote WLAN analysis, and application layer protocol analysis.
