Abstract
A technique for addressing access point (AP) authentication issues involves providing AP fingerprinting. With AP fingerprinting, it becomes relatively difficult to spoof a basic service set ID (bssid) in a domain. Advantageously, wired connectivity is not required for AP authentication when an AP fingerprint is used. In a specific implementation, 802.11 management packets are used to communicate network identity and authentication information for APs.
