Abstract
A method of detecting a rogue access point is disclosed. A message is directed from a supplicant to a network through an access point. A network response message is received by the supplicant from the access point. A step of determining whether the access point is one of a valid network access point and a rogue access point is performed based on whether the received network response message is respectively in conformity or nonconformity with predetermined expectations. If the access point is determined to be a rogue access point, it is reported to the network. If the access point is determined to be a valid network access point, the supplicant is authenticated to the network.
