Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and
|
|
intrusion detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card
|
|
which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and (with appropriate
|
|
hardware) can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11n traffic.
|
|
Kismet also supports plugins which allow sniffing other media such as
|
|
DECT.
|
|
|
|
Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting
|
|
standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden
|
|
networks, and inferring the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data
|
|
traffic.
|
|
|
|
This script requires a 'kismet' group to exist before running. The
|
|
recommended GID is 234. You can create it like this:
|
|
groupadd -g 234 kismet
|
|
|
|
After installation, add user to kismet group and re-login.
