Hi, Based on recent mails regarding articles found here for wireless pen testing. Using all the tools desribed here requires capturing interesting packets (unique RC4 IV) in a packet capture. http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1814 The problem relates to creating traffic on a wireless network in case you dont find a lot of traffic for a good capture. Is there any way you can create traffic on a WEP network without knowing - the IP Address (address range) the Access Point and wireless clients are using - the WEP key being used (makes sense - that is why you are running a WEP crack) The closest I see of this is the aireplay tool (this can be found on the AUDITOR CD mentioned in teh article). This basically replays any arp requests found in a capture. However I could not get aireplay to run (gave me a Segmentation error). of course WEP uses a session key - so session replay is not a possibility. Does anyone know of any tool/ method to create wireless traffic to assist in a good capture Best regards Arvind
Did you read this great article titled "WEP: Dead Again, Part 1" http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1814 regards, Berdt
