2.8 Device Profile
Information collected during a wireless scan or survey is displayed in the Mission
Window as Device Profiles. Only the most recently seen devices are displayed when
scanning is enabled, otherwise all devices seen since the Mission was created are
displayed.
Detailed properties are available for each network device shown in the Mission Window.
Details of these devices can be viewed or edited by right-clicking on a row in the Mission
Window and selecting “Profile Details”. This opens the Profile Details dialog, where
additional information such as the device’s location, security settings, and survey
techniques are listed. Note that the operator is responsible for entering some properties
(e.g., “Location”).
The Profile Details dialog can also be used to configure the survey task deployed against
the network device. Survey options are found on the Connection Settings and Survey
Settings tabs. The configuration of survey tasks is discussed in section 4.5 Survey Task
Configuration.
2.9 Scanning
Scanning refers to the process of searching for wireless networks. When scanning is
enabled, the Mission Window is continuously updated with information about locally
detected wireless network devices. This device information includes:
• Unique MAC address (BSSID)
• SSID (ESSID)
• Encryption status
• Signal strength
• Channel number
• Last seen time (in seconds)
For more information on configuring scanning see section 3.5.1 Scan Configuration.
The activity icon, displayed in the first column, provides feedback on how often Sundew
detects a network. This icon closely corresponds to the last seen time for the network and
not the signal level of the device; there is some correlation, however, as the device will be
seen less often as the signal level drops. Figure 3 illustrates the operation of the activity
icon.
