Abstract

The wireless local area network (WLAN) communication is a rapidly growing approach for data sharing. A wireless network provides network access to mobile devices. Benefits of WLAN are like flexibility, mobility, portability, imposes performance, and security requirements. Such communication brings new network security threats. Physical security of wireless networks is impossible because wireless network signals are unidirectional and can proceed out of intended coverage area. Intruder with an apt wireless receiver can snoop into the network still remaining virtually undetected. In a WLAN, the most important security apprehension is the presence of rogue access point (RAP). These RAPs can be definitely used by persons with inadequate security knowledge.

A RAP is a wireless AP, which is installed in a secure wireless network without network administrator permission. Such RAP allows int...
