WIFI_PCAP
WIFI_PCAP_START - start an optimized pcap log of Wi-Fi packets
WIFI_PCAP_STOP - stop a running pcap log
When to use them
A pcap log file gives a standard record of packets seen.
The Pineapple Recon engine can automatically make an optimized pcap log. Using in-kernel filtering, the Recon system minimizes the extraneous data captured in a pcap capture, trimming data packets and other content.
Use the tcpdump tool to take a complete, unfiltered pcap directly from an interface.
Syntax
WIFI_PCAP_START
Start a pcap capture
