Detecting And Eliminating Rogue Access Points In Ieee-802.11 Wlan - A Multi-Agent Sourcing Methodology

Abstract

For the Wireless Networks, presence of unapproved access points is becoming the major security issue. If this kind of network threats are not detected and mitigated on time, those will lead to the serious network damage and data loss. There are many researchers proposed solutions to overcome this security problem of WLAN, but those proposed tools having limitations or maybe they not automated to adopt the frequent changes in WLAN. We are into this research to present the new approach based on Master and Slave agents. This proposed approach not only looking for fast detection of Rogue Access points in the network but also presenting the solution to mitigate the WLAN from them. In short new framework is dealing with detecting as well as eliminating the Rough Access Points in the network. In proposed approach, the Master and slave agents are automatically scanning the networks for any unauthorized access points using the skew intervals. This
