Fake AP Main:

"Black Alchemy's Fake AP generates thousands of counterfeit 802.11b access points. Hide in plain sight amongst Fake AP's cacophony of beacon frames. As part of a honeypot or as an instrument of your site security plan, Fake AP confuses Wardrivers, NetStumblers, Script Kiddies, and other undesirables." -blackalchemy

 

Installing Fake AP

 

Note: Fake AP only works with prism cards.

 

 

Using Fake AP:

 

cd /tools/wifi/fakeap

 

perl fakeap.pl (for usage):

 

 

Running Fake AP in its basic form:

 

 

perl fakeap.pl --interface wlan0

 

Will produce numerous Fake APs, however they will all be based on the default ESSIDs (Access Point, tsunami, host, airport, linksys) and default vendor MACs (00:00:0C, 00:00:CE, 00:00:EF) listed in the fakeap.pl file.

 

Fake AP gives us many more options to personalise our configuration we are able to specify:

  • Channel number --channel [Channel No.]

     

  • Essid --essid [NAME]

     

  • MAC address --max [MAC ADDRESS]

     

  • Sleep interval e.g. time between AP changes --sleep [N] (Where N is seconds between AP change)

     

  • WEP key usage probability --wep [N] (Use WEP with probability N where 0 < N <= 1)

    •  i.e. 1 = WEP is always used, 0 = WEP never used

       

  • WEP key itself --key [WEP KEY]

     

  • Transmission power between two values --power [N] (Vary transmit power between 1 and N.  In milliwatts)

     

In addition we can also opt to use word files (/tools/wifi/fakeap-[version]/lists) to specify ESSIDs and vendor MACs.  Fake AP comes complete with 2 ESSID wordlists (koaps-fo-wordlist.txt, stefan-wordlist.txt) and 1 MAC list (stefan-maclist.txt)

 

 

Examples:

 

perl fakeap.pl --interface wlan0 --words lists/stefan-wordlist.txt --vendors lists/stefan-maclist.txt

 

 

 

 

perl fakeap.pl --interface wlan0 --channel 11 --essid BANANA --wep 1 --key [WEP KEY]
