What is an IVS file?
More Information
To crack a WEP key with Aircrack-ng, users first perform an ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) Injection on the network, which forces the wireless device to generate packets with new IVs. These IVs that are dumped into an IVS file which Aircrack-ng uses to decipher the WEP key.
NOTE: Because of the weakness of WEP encryption, it has been replaced by other wireless network encryption protocols.
