How it Works

After powering up, the device will create Wi-Fi access point with configured network name (see Configuration). It will assign IPs to clients with DHCP and also serves as DNS. All DNS requests are resolved to 10.0.0.1, IP address of device itself.

HoneyESP also runs HTTP server on default port 80. All requests are redirected to http://wifi-gateway.local/ and on this address it runs the captive portal stored on SD card or in embedded SPIFFS.

All login credentials entered by users (victims) are then stored in file datalog.txt. Unless blocked by the BLOCK_DATALOG_REQUEST directive (only in SD version), this file is then available on http://wifi-gateway.local/datalog.txt URL.

The values mentioned above can be changed using #define macros in firmware. The above are default values.
