<title>802.11 Fuzzing and Testing</title>
<desc>
<p><strong>Technical contact</strong>: <a

<p>Build a "packet fuzzer" tool that can be used to build test suites to
improve reliability of the 802.11 code against garbage data. There are
various tools out but I'm not aware of any good ones that work with 802.11
and are generally available. The basic idea is to write a packet
injector/playback tool that's driven by a scripting language. Then you
need to build up a database of test cases. It's also possibly important
to do time-based playback.</p>
