Weplab is a tool designed to teach how the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) wireless encryption protocol works, explain the security vulnerabilities in the protocol, and demonstrate attacks that can be used to compromise a WEP protected wireless network. Weplab is designed not only to crack WEP keys but to analyze the wireless security of a network from an educational point of view.
