In my lab i have an IAP-225 which is running 4.2.0.1 EA code. While doing some scans i noticed that it is broadcasting a hidden SSID. I have not configured this.
The AP is managed by Airwave, and configured through the IGC.
Here is what i see over the air while scanning with airodump-ng
AC:A3:1E:AA:01:31 -48 45 3956 0 0 52 54e WPA2 CCMP PSK <length: 0>
AC:A3:1E:AA:01:32 -48 56 3938 955 2 52 54e WPA2 CCMP PSK HelloWorld
When i look at the radio in AMP i see that it does not show a hidden network
Active BSSIDs
BSSID SSID
AC:A3:1E:AA:01:32 | HelloWorld |
I have only two SSIDs configured in the IGC which is my HellowWorld SSID and another Guest on 2.4 ghz only. Show run on the AP show only 2 wlan ssid-profiles
Why is my access point sending out beacons for a hidden network? Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
