Abstract
Avoiding the DOS attack is crucial for wireless local area network (wireless LAN) in ensuring the wireless LAN to work normally. In this paper, a method of detecting and avoiding the Queensland attack is proposed. The method uses the change of the beacon interval to determine whether the attack occurred. Once the attack is detected, the method resets the working channel of the AP, and reboots it. The simulations show that the method is available in detecting and avoiding the Queensland attack.
