Description: 802.11 Security /by Bruce Potter (Author), Bob Fleck (Editor). 802.11
Security covers the entire process of building secure 802.11-based
wireless networks, in particular, the 802.11b ("Wi-Fi") specification.
The authors provide detailed coverage of security issues unique to
wireless networking, such as Wireless Access Points (WAP), bandwidth
stealing, and the problematic Wired Equivalent Privacy component of
802.11.
You'll learn how to configure a wireless client and to set
up a WAP using either Linux or Free BSD. You'll also find thorough
information on controlling network access and encrypting client traffic.
Beginning with an introduction to 802.11b in general, the book gives
you a broad basis in theory and practice of wireless security,
dispelling some of the myths along the way. In doing so, they provide
you with the technical grounding required to think about how the rest of
the book applies to your specific needs and situations. If you are a
network, security, or systems engineer, or anyone interested in
deploying 802.11b-based systems, you'll want this book beside you every
step of the way.
