The first time attempt of Linux

Last Friday, we tried to use Linux (version: BackTrack 5 and Kali Linux) in laboratory. It had to say that it's the first time for most of our group numbers to use this operating system. Different with popular Graphical Operating System as Windows and MAC OS, Linux is the Open Source Operating System. For user who  Therefore, it was hard to operate this system fluently, let alone attack or defense. Every time if we wanted to make an operation, an command should be inputted and that's the difficult point we are not familiar with these codes. For this reason, although we've known what software we need such as aircrack, it was useless when the entered commands were incorrect or null. At this time, Andrew helped us to solve this problem. He has explained the details about some commands and demonstrated once how to attack designated AP. we believed it was beneficial for us to do this experiment next time. After consideration, we decided to install Kali Linux in our individual computer because Kali Linux is the new version including all useful software in this experiment.

Ps: the photo below is the screenshot of  the example Andrew provided about how to use the attack method, BSSID, which would shut down the signal emitting function of the AP.
