Some larger networks are “switched” — meaning they use a network switch to forward specific dataonlyto the designated device, rather than to all network devices. Sniffing on a switched network requires additional protocols to ensure the packet sniffer can be monitored. There are two main types...
Context, which can mean place, can also mean “behavioral task demand” or meaning of the place. A context or territory can be “a place to undertake some particular learned conception and action” rather than a place to instinctually freeze or explore. Knowledge or memory of the appropriate...
This is where active sniffing comes into play. In order to access all the traffic passing through the network, an active sniffer needs to get around or overcome the way switches direct everything. There are a few different ways to accomplish this, but all of them involve injecting additional ...
The most accurate process to do this is to start the capture and then de-authenticate the client in order to catch the process from zero, meaning that the 4 way EAPOL handshake will be included. If frames are within another format, like PEEKREMOTE it will be required to decode them, ...
I keep meaning to fire up ARP poison routing on my cable Internet connection, after I ran tcpdump (for troubleshooting purposes) and noticed my fellow residents’ computers ARPing for the gateway’s MAC address. The only thing keeping me from doing serious damage, er, “research”, is the ...
Wireless network encryption has come a long way in its short lifespan—going from no encryption to Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption to Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption. Wireless networks don't provide the same segmentation that the previously mentioned switches provide, meaning that...
In particular, the user name and password information can not be directly recognized. This is due to the fact, that the message's payload gets transmitted in SAP's compressed format. A rough analysis of the message identified the following protocol fields with their corresponding meaning: Offset...
