Ok, I stand corrected. The wap-nmap readme file states: "#INTRODUCTION# Okay basically wap-nmap is nothing more than a script that performs an nmap scan of a user input IP address or hostname and pumps the results back out to a wap enabled device... most often than not this happens to be" So I guess this scan can be from a mobile or a wired network device. It still doesn't differentiate what is a wireless IP address from a wired one, which was my query. Thanks Jeremy. mgr -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Sanders [mailto:jsandersat_private] Sent: Friday, August 24, 2001 12:24 PM To: Mike.Ruscher@CSE-CST.GC.CA Subject: RE: Mapping wireless LANS from the wired side >This would still only scan from the wireless side, >but is still an >interesting tool. It doesn't scan from the wireless side. It scans from where ever the web server it is sitting on is located. All wap-nmap is is a set of wml and php files that redirect your input to a command line and feed the output back to the wap device. Which btw is completely different from 802.11b. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is provided by the SecurityFocus Security Intelligence Alert (SIA) Service.
