Hello, I traced mon.wlan0 and wlan0 on an accesspoint, because I wanted to see, which data is sent through which device (WPA2 TLS). That's what I saw: mon.wlan0 wlan0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- initial authentication probe request x probe response x (2 times) authentication requ x authentication resp x (2 times) association request x association response x (2 times) request identity x (2 times) response identity x request eaptls x (2 times) Server Hello x Client Hello x IEEE 802.11 x request eap-tls x (2 times) response eap-tls x (2 times) Change Cipher Spec x (2 times) Certificate Client x EAP Success x (2 times) Response eap-tls x EAPOL Key msg 1/4 x (2 times) EAPOL Key msg 2/4 x EAPOL Key msg 3/4 x (2 times) EAPOL Key msg 4/4 x IEEE 802.11 action success x GTK - rekeying QoS Data 2 times (WEP and CCMP) EAPOL Key msg 2/2 x Reauthentication QoS (request identity?) x response identity x QoS (server hello?) x client hello x QoS (Change Cipher Spec?) x QoS (EAPOL Key msg 1/4?) x EAPOL Key msg 2/4 x QoS (EAPOL Key msg 3/4?) x EAPOL Key msg 4/4 x QoS (IEEE 802.11 success) x I'm surprised, that not all of the management packages went through the mon-device. At the beginning (initial connection), all data went through the mon-device. After the association, all management data from the client (supplicant) goes through the normal wlan0 device - I would have expected, that all management and authorization data went through the mon device. Could anybody please shed some light on this?
