Zusammenfassung:A wireless sniffer for analyzing the channel quality of a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) identifies which of the wireless transmissions it detects over a wireless interface are carried on the WLAN it is analyzing by having a dedicated link from a network management system controlling the WLAN under investigation, over which signature data such as a MAC ID associated with the WLAN is received and stored for comparison with signature data associated with the wireless transmissions it detects on the wireless interface it can identify which of the received wireless transmissions are carried on the WLAN it is to analyze.
