Getting Ip Address With Kismet


aboka

Recommended Posts

Hi! I am new to BT4 and have learn howto break a WEP/WPA with no problem. And now trying with more advance setup like MAC filtering, etc. One thing i can't seems to crack is AP with its DHCP disabled. I have search the web and found out that Kismet could pickup the IP range. But i could not get it to work. I fire up Kismet and it will pickup all the AP it detects include my test AP. Kismet did picks up IPs(flashing on the bottom part), but how do i process the data and find the data i need??

Thank you in advance B)

Kismet can only get the IP addresses if the network is unencrypted, otherwise it can't look inside the packets.

If you have the WEP/WPA keys you can decrypt the pcap file with airdecap then open it in something like wireshark and manually read out the IPs.

If there is no traffic on a network then try common subnets, just give yourself a static IP somewhere in the middle of the range and try to send traffic to the top and bottom ends, that is where you generally find servers and routers.

Usually a wireless network could be set up with an IP address in one of the following ranges,

10.0.0.1 to .255

255.0.0.0

192.168.0.1 to .255

255.255.0.0

192.168.1.1 to .255

255.255.255.0

or 172.16.0.1 .255

255.255.0.0

Just a matter figuring out what range of IP address the network uses, just like Digininja suggested.

Thank you. I read this Private IP range on some website before, guess i will need to memorize them =)

Yes, i have the WEP key as it is my own wireless network. So how do i get Kismet to show the IP address? I could not find this info anywhere on the net.

*I will look into the second option - decrypt pcap file and using wireshark to read the IPs.

*I just start reading Hacking Kismet, but not sure if it will cover this.

Thank you,
