NAME

       kismet_drone - Wireless sniffing and monitoring remote drone

SYNOPSIS

       kismet_drone [-svh] [-f config-file] [-c capture-source]
       [-C enable-capture-sources] [-p port] [-a allowed-hosts]
       [-N server-name]

DESCRIPTION

       kismet_drone  supports  all  the  capture  sources  available  to  Kismet.  Instead of processing packets
       locally, kismet_drone makes them available via TCP to a remote kismet_server using  the  'drone'  capture
       source.

USAGE

       kismet_drone  should  be configured as you would kismet_server.  All logging, packet dissection, etc will
       take place on the remote kismet server using the 'drone' capture source.

       kismet_monitor should be used to place capture sources into rfmonitor mode as needed,  and  kismet_hopper
       should be used for channel hopping.

       kismet_drone is controlled by the kismet_drone.conf config file.

ENCRYPTION

       It  may  be  desirable  to  encrypt  the  packet  stream  between the remote drone and the kismet system.
       Standard SSH packet tunneling or any other tunneling/forwarding system may be used, and is recommended.
