Add kismet, an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion
detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic. PR: ports/66274 Submitted by: Thomas Spreng <spreng@socket.ch>

+Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion
+detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw
+monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic.
+
+Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting
+standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden
+networks, and infering the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data traffic.
+
+Known supported cards: Atheros, Prism2, WSP100, Drone, wtapfile, pcapfile.
+Kismet also supports the radiotap headers and should work with current FreeBSD
+systems.
