Wireless › Module 1 › Lesson 4
RoE Lab
Pack wireless RoE + lab radio note — literacy file only, dest $LAB_SSID.
Visual · wireless_roe_lab
Lab: write wireless RoE pack. $LAB_SSID only. Original Cyberlium.
Opening
If the SSID is not $LAB_SSID in the pack, monitor mode does not get it.
Lessons 1–3 defined wireless, wrote RoE, and locked the lab radio. This lab ships the artifact later modules reuse: a wireless RoE file naming $LAB_SSID, $LAB_IFACE, allowed actions (observe/capture on lab SSID per brief), and NEVER lines for neighbors, deauth spam, and public evil twins. No capture run required — this is paperwork discipline defenders expect before any adapter goes promiscuous. Next: Quiz — Wireless Mindset and RoE.
1. Lab contract: write the pack first
Create $HOME/cyberlium-lab/t15-m01-l04-roe-lab.txt with date, operator, $LAB_SSID, $LAB_IFACE, allowed actions, and NEVER list.
Optional: one-line proof you can associate to $LAB_SSID — still no monitor capture required in this lab.
Command guide
Try these commands — Lab contract: write the pack first
═══ TOOLS & WEBSITES ═══ Browse / read these (authorized learning only — stay in YOUR lab / program scope)
802.11 overview — https://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/security Wireshark — https://www.wireshark.org/ (capture YOUR lab only)
═══ INSTALL ═══
Linux (Debian/Ubuntu):
Command — copy this
sudo apt install iw sudo apt install network-manager
macOS: Prefer Linux lab VM for iw Use airport / System Settings
Windows: Use Kali VM / WSL with iw Use netsh wlan (built-in)
═══ LINUX / macOS ═══
Command — copy this
grep LAB_SSID "$HOME/cyberlium-lab/t15-wifi/roe.txt" 2>/dev/null || echo 'Document YOUR lab ESSID' iw dev 2>/dev/null; nmcli device wifi list 2>/dev/null | head -15
═══ WINDOWS ═══
Command — copy this
netsh wlan show networks mode=bssid
Primary tools to practice this lesson: iw, nmcli, grep. Reference sites: 802.11 overview (https://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/security); Wireshark (https://www.wireshark.org/). Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Cross-check against misuse patterns
Grep your notes for neighbor SSID examples and redact them to $LAB_SSID. If a tutorial screenshot shows a café SSID, rewrite mentally to $LAB_SSID before you copy habits.
Classmates run their own lab AP; do not 'share targets' by capturing each other's home Wi-Fi.
3. Lock the proof
chmod 600 on the pack. Quiz is next — then 802.11 Literacy.
Defenders archive RoE with test evidence; you are practicing that archive habit early.
4. What you ship: wireless RoE pack for $LAB_SSID
RoE pack names $LAB_SSID and $LAB_IFACE. NEVER lines present. chmod 600. No stranger SSIDs.
5. What you record before the next lesson
Date. RoE pack path. $LAB_SSID association note. File t15-m01-l04-roe-lab.txt chmod 600.
6. Wrong vs right: stranger SSIDs vs YOUR lab AP
Worked failure — same MSF word, opposite target. Right never needs a café Wi-Fi or classmate laptop.
Wrong
Add a neighbor SSID 'as a second target.' Skip the file and enable monitor mode anyway.
Right
Write YOUR pack for $LAB_SSID. chmod 600. Next: Quiz — Wireless Mindset and RoE.
Mission: freeze YOUR wireless RoE on disk
1) Write RoE pack with who/what/where/stop. 2) Name $LAB_SSID and $LAB_IFACE. 3) Optional association note to $LAB_SSID only. 4) chmod 600. Never list stranger SSIDs.

RoE is boring on purpose — boring saves careers and keeps strangers' radios alone.
