Identification of Characteristics of Rouge Access Point based on SNMP and SYSLOG Protocols

Abstract:

The problem of detecting attacks on a wireless local area network that use rogue access points is a complex and multi-threaded problem. In this article, the concept of using SNMP and SYSLOG protocol messaging to detect the presence of such access points will be presented. The analysis presented in the paper is based on experience gained in a real network environment.
