Greetings fellow developers!
I'm a student taking Electrical Engineering specializing Computer Engineering and am still learning a lot about Wireless and Programming.. I'm working on my last project in University.
I now have to make a packet sniffer program which utilizes wireless adapter in my laptop to read an RFID tag using 802.11 b/g protocol. Using Backtrack 4 r2 as my OS, I could put my wifi adapter into monitor mode and then used Wireshark to read the presence of the tag. It transmits probe request and data inside it.. I already could see it. But, that's not enough. Now, my professor wants me to make Wireshark to read only my tag and not other WAP. Also he wants it to read the tag just once in a period of time.
and, I need to parse the MAC address of the tag too.. my sniffer program has to proceed the MAC Address of the tag to a database center.
Can I change the source code of Wireshark to do those things: reads only from specific type of clients, filters MAC address so that no same MAC address recorded, and proceeds the MAC address and info in the tag to a database server? Has anyone ever done this before?
Thank you very much...
Sincerely yours,
