RE: Finding Wireless AP's on your network

One option is to do port sweep of port 80...   Then connect to anything
that pops up.

Catalog legit items on that port, and keep track.  Most commercial AP's
use http to configure them.

Subject: Finding Wireless AP's on your network

 
What would be the best way to locate wireless devices on a remote
network? Some of these sites are hundreds of miles away from me, so it's
not feasible to detect them via normal methods (i.e., airsnort, kismet,
etc). Is there a way that I can easily tell if one is plugged into one
of the switches at the remote location?
