This is a forum for discussion about the packet traces obtained in test 0321D.

Logs

Packet Traces: Chan 1, Chan 11, Chan 6

Laptop X59 logs: All, dmesg, /var/log/messages, Telepathy/Sugar

Laptop X71 logs: All, dmesg, /var/log/messages, Telepathy/Sugar

Server logs: /var/log/messages, Laptop List

It appears clear that the logging mechanism doesn't record every frame in the air at every location!

Channel 1

The school server has MAC address of 00:50:43:28:26:2d.

Laptop X59

This laptop has MAC address 00:17:c4:11:01:f0.

The filter most useful in this search was:

wlan.sa==00:17:c4:11:01:f0 || wlan.da==00:17:c4:11:01:f0 || wlan_mgt.fixed.sa==00:17:c4:11:01:f0 || wlan_mgt.fixed.da==00:17:c4:11:01:f0

All times in packet trace time, unless otherwise noted

  • At 64.215, beacons from X59 start appearing. This probably corresponds to power up, five seconds before main processor boot at roughly 5:19:15 laptop time, giving an offset from laptop kernel time to packet trace of roughly 50 to 55 sec.
  • From 72.930 to 79.523, the laptop issues six IPv6 nearest neighbor discovery requests
  • At 78.097, it relays an RREQ from 00:17:c4:0d:08:46
  • From the laptop logs, it issued a DHCP discover at time 5:20:28 -> 125 to 130 sec packet trace time
  • We don't see the laptop issue an RREQ, even though we see it relay another laptops RREQ at 129.370
  • Between 130.9986 and 131.0167 , a number of laptops repeat an RREQ from X59
  • A number of RREPs are sent by the school server starting at 131.018, to 00:17:c4:11:50:c2, but we don't see it ever sending the RREP on to X59
  • Two additional DHCP DISCOVER packets are sent at one second intervals, then one is sent 8 sec. after the first (138 packet trace time), then a last one 18 seconds after the first (148 sec. packet trace time).
  • From 154.500 to 154.523, we see a number of laptops relaying an RREQ from X59
  • From 172.474 to 172.503, we see a number of laptops relaying an RREQ from X59
  • At 172.5029, we even see the school server relay the RREQ from X59, but never see it issue a RREP.
  • From 175.650 to 176.416, X59 relays a number of RREQs from other laptops
  • At 176.468, we see X59 send out an RREQ barrage (4 frames at varying speeds)
  • At 176.489, we see X59 send out another RREQ barrage.
  • From 176.495 to 176.632 we see a number of laptops relaying the RREQs from X59, including the school server at 176.546, 176.551, 176.555, 176.558, 176.566, and 176.570.
  • No RREP from the school server is seen
  • At 176.580 and 176.656 see X59 relaying RREQs for other laptops
  • At 177.039, it relays a broadcast ARP request for the school server
  • At 178.471, we see X59 send out an RREQ barrage
  • From 178.476 to 179.?? we see a number of laptop relaying the RREQs from X59

Laptop X71

Working Laptop

Other Channels

The other channels were not supported by the school server. Any traffic on them is either laptops looking for a school server or bleed-over from channel 1.
