Reconnaissance is used to gather information about the wireless devices present in the range of the wireless adapter. WIFIACE uses airodump-ng as a background tool to gather the information.

• Scan Settings : Used to scan the locality for N number of minutes. The adjustment in the amount of time spend in scanning allows you to capture valuable information like hidden SSID names (if they client and AP did handshake during the scan), probe request's,etc.

• Scan Results : Presents information about the ESSID(Extended Service Set Identifier) i.e. the name of the Access Point. BSSID operating Channel. Cipher used like TKIP,CCMP,WRAP,etc for protected communication between the client and the Access Point. Auth give's information about the authentication protocol like WEP,WPA/WPA2,etc used. PWR represnets the signal strenght of the access point, higher PWR value that much closer you are to the access point. That PWR value depends on the drivers so it can var. Apart from the above information the Scan Results display the associated the access point and their clients. Add to allow list/Add to deny list will add the selected MAC address to MAC filtering list.

• Deauth : Used to deauthenticate the clients format the client from the Access Point, to use this option just simply click on the BSSID of the access point or the client, selecting the access point will deauth all the connected clients whereas selecting the client will only deauthenticate selected client. Deauth has multiplier's which allows you to regulate the number of packets send for deauth. The number of packets send are doubled eg : 1 = 10 packets 2 = 20 packets 3 = 40 packets 4 = 80 packets and so on.
• Unassociated clients : Displays the unassociated client. Unassociated clients are those which are not connected to any access point tent to send the probe requests to check if any of their home access point or the access point to which they have connected previously are present.
