# Kismet config file # Most of the "static" configs have been moved to here -- the command line # config was getting way too crowded and cryptic. We want functionality, # not continually reading --help! # Version of Kismet config version=2009-newcore # Name of server (Purely for organizational purposes) # If commented out, defaults to host name of system # servername=Kismet Server # Prefix of where we log (as used in the logtemplate later) logprefix=/tmp # Do we process the contents of data frames? If this is enabled, data # frames will be truncated to the headers only immediately after frame type # detection. This will disable IP detection, etc, however it is likely # safer (and definitely more polite) if monitoring networks you do not own. # hidedata=true # Do we allow plugins to be used? This will load plugins from the system # and user plugin directiories when set to true (See the README for the default # plugin locations). allowplugins=false # See the README for full information on the new source format # ncsource=interface:options # for example: # ncsource=wifi0:type=madwifi # ncsource=wlan0:name=intel,hop=false,channel=11 ncsource=wlan0 # Comma-separated list of sources to enable. This is only needed if you defined # multiple sources and only want to enable some of them. By default, all defined # sources are enabled. # For example, if sources with name=prismsource and name=ciscosource are defined, # and you only want to enable those two: # enablesources=prismsource,ciscosource # Control which channels we like to spend more time on. By default, the list # of channels is pulled from the driver automatically. By setting preferred channels, # if they are present in the channel list, they'll be set with a timing delay so that # more time is spent on them. Since 1, 6, 11 are the common default channels, it makes # sense to spend more time monitoring them. # For finer control, see further down in the config for the channellist= directives. preferredchannels=1,6,11 # How many channels per second do we hop? (1-10) channelvelocity=3 # By setting the dwell time for channel hopping we override the channelvelocity # setting above and dwell on each channel for the given number of seconds. #channeldwell=10 # Channels are defined as: # channellist=name:ch1,ch2,ch3 # or # channellist=name:range-start-end-width-offset,ch,range,ch,... # # Channels may be a numeric channel or a frequency # # Channels may specify an additional wait period. For common default channels, # an additional wait period can be useful. Wait periods delay for that number # of times per second - so a configuration hopping 10 times per second with a # channel of 6:3 would delay 3/10ths of a second on channel 6. # # Channel lists may have up to 256 channels and ranges (combined). For power # users scanning more than 256 channels with a single card, ranges must be used. # # Ranges are meant for "power users" who wish to define a very large number of # channels. A range may specify channels or frequencies, and will automatically # sort themselves to cover channels in a non-overlapping fashion. An example # range for the normal 802.11b/g spectrum would be: # # range-1-11-3-1 # # which indicates starting at 1, ending at 11, a channel width of 3 channels, # incrementing by one. A frequency based definition would be: # # range-2412-2462-22-5 # # since 11g channels are 22 mhz wide and 5 mhz apart. # # Ranges have the flaw that they cannot be shared between sources in a non-overlapping # way, so multiple sources using the same range may hop in lockstep with each other # and duplicate the coverage. # # channellist=demo:1:3,6:3,11:3,range-5000-6000-20-10 # Default channel lists # These channel lists MUST BE PRESENT for Kismet to work properly. While it is # possible to change these, it is not recommended. These are used when the supported # channel list can not be found for the source; to force using these instead of # the detected supported channels, override with channellist= in the source defintion # # IN GENERAL, if you think you want to modify these, what you REALLY want to do is # copy them and use channellist= in the packet source. channellist=IEEE80211b:1:3,6:3,11:3,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10 channellist=IEEE80211a:36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,149,153,157,161,165 channellist=IEEE80211ab:1:3,6:3,11:3,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,149,153,157,161,165 # Client/server listen config listen=tcp://127.0.0.1:2501 #listen=tcp://0.0.0.0:2501 # People allowed to connect, comma seperated IP addresses or network/mask # blocks.
