Re: Tool to find rouge wireless access points?

repost for group:


Nessus will do this. There is a plugin just for this.

More rudimentary, is that you can use a wireless scanner to capture
traffic. Use strings and a perl script to pull hostnames from the
traffic and then compare those hostnames to your inventory (I told you
it was rudimentary, but this will tell you either you have a your
clients connecting to a rogue ap that they set up, or they are
connecting to one circumventing your controls). David Hoelzer from
SANS gives a tutorial for this:
