  • Abstract
    Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are subject to different types of vulnerabilities. Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are among the most challenging issues regarding WLANs. In this paper, we present our approach to simulate the RTS flood DoS attack, and to analyze the effects of this attack on IEEE 802.11 WLANs. OPNET Modeler 14.5 advanced network simulator is used to simulate this type of attack.
