Running It
Airodump is one of the many tools included in the aircrack-ng suite. Run it by passing the first argument that is always the wireless network device, and the rest of the options being specified:
airodump-ng wlan1
Airodump can output information in multiple formats, so you'll want to specify some of those details on the command line using the --write or -w flag:
airodump-ng wlan1 -w mydump
HALP
Here is the full list of options:
usage: airodump-ng <options> <interface>[,<interface>,...]
Options:
--ivs : Save only captured IVs
--gpsd : Use GPSd
--write <prefix> : Dump file prefix
-w : same as --write
--beacons : Record all beacons in dump file
--update <secs> : Display update delay in seconds
--showack : Prints ack/cts/rts statistics
-h : Hides known stations for --showack
-f <msecs> : Time in ms between hopping channels
--berlin <secs> : Time before removing the AP/client
from the screen when no more packets
are received (Default: 120 seconds)
-r <file> : Read packets from that file
-x <msecs> : Active Scanning Simulation
--manufacturer : Display manufacturer from IEEE OUI list
--uptime : Display AP Uptime from Beacon Timestamp
--wps : Display WPS information (if any)
--output-format
<formats> : Output format. Possible values:
pcap, ivs, csv, gps, kismet, netxml
Short format "-o"
The option can be specified multiple times. In this case, each file format
specified will be output. Only ivs or pcap can be used, not both.
--ignore-negative-one : Removes the message that says
fixed channel <interface>: -1
--write-interval
<seconds> : Output file(s) write interval in seconds
Filter options:
--encrypt <suite> : Filter APs by cipher suite
--netmask <netmask> : Filter APs by mask
--bssid <bssid> : Filter APs by BSSID
--essid <essid> : Filter APs by ESSID
--essid-regex <regex> : Filter APs by ESSID using a regular
expression
-a : Filter unassociated clients
By default, airodump-ng hop on 2.4GHz channels.
You can make it capture on other/specific channel(s) by using:
--channel <channels> : Capture on specific channels
--band <abg> : Band on which airodump-ng should hop
-C <frequencies> : Uses these frequencies in MHz to hop
--cswitch <method> : Set channel switching method
0 : FIFO (default)
1 : Round Robin
2 : Hop on last
-s : same as --cswitch
--help : Displays this usage screen
