RE: Wired detection of rogue access points

["Waters, Chris" <cwaters () networkchemistry com>]

Hi,

RogueScanner is an open-source project dedicated to exactly what you are
looking for: finding wireless access points by scanning a LAN.

http://roguescanner.networkchemistry.net/

RogueScanner uses a large, collaboratively constructed database to
classify everything connected to a LAN, including PCs, switches,
routers, printers, and of course APs. If you need to scan a LAN with
more than a few hundred devices on it then there is a commercial version
too:

http://www.networkchemistry.com/products/rfprotectscanner.php

The commercial version is appliance based and adds a rich user interface
for finding unauthorized devices on networks of thousands or tens of
thousands of devices.

Regards,

Chris Waters

Hello there,

Can anyone point me to a wired LAN scanner/sniffer that detects wireless
access points connected to the LAN?

Thanks,
JW
