kismet_drone.conf(5)kismet_drone.conf(5)NAMEkismet_drone.conf - Wireless sniffing and monitoring drone configura‐
tion file
DESCRIPTION
kismet_drone uses a minimalized configuration file, similar in options
to the main kismet server configuration file. By default, the drone
config is in /usr/local/etc/kismet.conf. A default configuration is
included with Kismet but it is likely you will need to modify it to
suit your hardware and preferences.
