RE: Tool to find rouge wireless access points?

["Erik Muttersbach" <erik () muttersbach net>]

Some time ago I have read about the idea to use clock skew in wireless
networks to characterize (or: fingerprint, if you want) the access points in
your network.

More information here:

u/~kasera/myPapers/fast%20and%20accurate%20detection%20clock%20skew.pdf
and here: http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~cja/papers/toorcon11_ver6a.pdf

This looked quite interesting, but I don't know if there is a practical
implementation, though. If someone knows of an application that uses this
technique, please let me know.

Erik

Subject: Tool to find rouge wireless access points?

Does anyone know of a tool to find rouge wireless access points?
I know of a lot of the various wireless scanners, but with those, it's
impossible to know if it's an AP on your network, or another companies
network. Especially in office buildings where there are other companies
above, below, and beside you.

It seems like the only way to do it is to scan on the wired network for APs
of any make/model, but I'm not aware of a tool that does it.



Thanks,
Jon
