Assignment Description
This assignment include two tasks:
Task one: (research)
Students are required to choose four WLAN sniffing tools and write a maximum of 200 words about each tool to highlight:
• How tools work o Level of complexity
• Included features
• Differences from other tools
• Advantages and disadvantages
• screen shots (one for each tool) o install demo versions then take screen shots – online screen shots will not be considered
Task two:
Students are required to
1. Record WLAN access points at a public place (such as at a shopping centre, public place, home network etc. of your choice).
2. Gather technical information about wireless network at three different locations with minimum of 5 APs for each location.
3. Test the WLAN sniffing tool and report your observation and recommend how to secure and/or manage WLAN. Your report should include:
a. Screenshots (as an evidence) and detail explanation to report working mechanism (the step by step process) of the identified technique.
b. Explain the use (evaluation) of the technique to secure and/or manage WLAN.
o Discuss dual bands and its advantages o Security implications
4. Submit a one (1) minute video along with audio to demonstrate your implementation (the tutor must be able to recognize you in the video). Your video file format must be compatible with video playing software available in MIT labs.
• Zip all your files and submit it on Moodle as one zip folder
