Hello all,
I am writing my own program, which will be running on a 802.11 AP, to capture
all the outgoing beacons on the AP. But I just noticed I cannot do it with the
current libpcap: the program couldn't capture any outbound beacons. I've also
tried Wireshark which gave the same result.
My questions are:
1. Can anyone shed some lights on the causes of what I saw?
2. Is there any user space method that I can capture the outbound beacons of a
802.11 AP on that specific AP (rather than capturing on other PCs)? It is
better for me if I can do this without hacking into the wireless driver.
Thanks, folks.
