Problems solved by technology

[0004] The purpose of the embodiments of the present invention is to propose a method, system and terminal device for finding APs with hidden SSIDs, aiming at solving the problem that in the prior art, only the signal coverage area, signal-to-noise ratio and connection rate can be identified, and the hidden SSID numbers cannot be scanned. The AP cannot detect illegal APs and malicious attackers, nor can it analyze the throughput of hotspots on a certain channel, and cannot accurately adjust channels and adjust the technical problems of AP layout.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and system for finding an AP (access point) with a hidden SSID (service set identifier) and a terminal device. The method for finding the AP with the hidden SSID comprises the following steps of: generating an AP detail table through scanning the current AP with a non-hidden SSID and AP parameters thereof; calculating an MAC (media access control) address of the AP by analyzing collected frame data; and comparing the MAC address of the AP with the MAC address in the AP detail table. If the MAC address of the AP is different with the MAC address in the AP detail table, the SSID corresponding to the MAC address of the AP is hidden. When the AP with the hidden SSID is found, non-hidden network parameters of the AP need to be adjusted to improve system security. A frequency channel and the SSID of the AP with the hidden SSID are analyzed through the AP detail table, the non-hidden frequency channel and the SSID of the AP are adjusted to avoid being disturbed, and a WiFi (wireless fidelity) terminal is avoided to be connected to an illegal AP with the hidden SSID information.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a method, a system and a terminal device for finding an AP with a hidden SSID. Background technique [0002] Two WiFi (wireless fidelity, wireless compatibility certification) terminals can communicate directly in Ad-Hoc mode, or communicate under the coordination of AP (Access Point, wireless access node, session point or access bridge), The terminal and AP form a local area network based on the WiFi communication mechanism. [0003] With the vigorous development of 3G, the network bandwidth has been greatly improved. In order to expand the number of users, telecom operators have launched their own WiFi hotspots (high-power APs with routing functions). How to allocate WiFi channel resources and monitor network throughput , network topology analysis, and the shielding of illegal users have become difficulties in hotspot management. At present, WiFi testers can only identify...
