    Currently, packet sniffer tools can capture packets and provide information for monitoring, analyzing, and troubleshooting networks, e.g., traffic, bandwidth, protocol, etc. However, these tools lack the capability, or feature, to display a network topology diagram on the screen, particularly for a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network), which is different from expensive network monitoring software sold commercially in the market. Therefore, it is difficult for a network administrator to visualize which client is connected to which AP (Access point) in the service areas of WLAN, or hotspots, for monitoring. This paper presents the development of the WLAN topology display system to support the network administrator in monitoring and enhancing the network services in the future. The system acquires the packet data captured by the packet sniffer tool, i.e., Wireshark. Then, the packet information is analyzed by using the data from the MAC (Medium Access Control) header following the IEEE802.11 standard to find the types, connection modes, and MAC addresses. Finally, the mapping table associated with the connected devices, i.e., client stations and APs, is constructed and used to create the WLAN topology diagram to display on the screen. The prototype system is implemented and tested in the laboratory environment, and the WLAN topology diagram showing the connections between the clients and the APs can be displayed on screen accurately as required.

    Currently, an indoor positioning system based on a fingerprint technique for wireless networks under IEEE 802.11 standard uses a method to collect a received signal strengths (RSS) to create a radio map in an offline phase. Then, it detects the RSS in an online phase to compare and find the position. However, while detecting and gathering the RSS, there are some variations of the RSS that affect the accuracy of position estimation. Therefore, there are several methods used to estimate the position in order to improve the accuracy, but the one focused in this paper is a decision tree based classification. The decision tree based classification method is found that it can provide better improvement in accuracy than the others, e.g., K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN), Bayesian, and Neural networks. However, the techniques used to construct the decision tree are varied depending on the algorithm used to implement. Therefore, this paper is a comparison of decision tree based techniques using typical decision tree (DT) and Gradient boosted tree algorithms for estimating the position indoor. In the study, the RSSs collected from access points in the experimental area are used as the training and testing data. The decision tree models are created by using typical DT and Gradient boosted algorithms based on the training data obtained. There are two factors to consider in the comparative study, i.e., the number of training data and the number of reference radio signals. The testing results from the experiment showed that the decision tree based on Gradient boosted algorithm yielded more accurate results than typical DT, where the amount of 19 reference radio signals and 50 samples of training data gave the best result.
