Using the NetDiscover Tool(Kali Linux Information Gathering part 1 )

Kali Linux has over 600 preinstalled penetration-testing programs, including Armitage (a graphical cyber attack management tool), Nmap (a port scanner), Wireshark (a packet analyzer), John the Ripper password cracker, Aircrack-ng (a software suite for penetration-testing wireless LANs), Burp suite and OWASP ZAP web application security scanners. Kali Linux can run natively when installing on a computer's hard disk, can be booted from a live CD or live USB, or it can run on a virtual machine. It is a supported platform of the Metasploit Project's Metasploit Framework, a tool for developing and executing security exploits.

It was developed by Mati Aharoni and Devon Kearns of Offensive Security through the rewrite of BackTrack, their previous information security testing Linux distribution based on Knoppix. The third core developer Raphaël Hertzog joined them as a Debian expert.

Kali Linux is based on Debian Testing. Most packages Kali uses are imported from the Debian repositories.

Kali Linux is developed using a secure environment with only a small number of trusted people that are allowed to commit packages, with each package being digitally signed by the developer. Kali also has a custom-built kernel that is patched for 802.11 wireless injections. This was primarily added because the development team found they needed to do a lot of wireless assessments.

*Aircrack-ng

Thank you! Could you help me with the following problem?: I am using a wifi adapter in monitor mode, so I have tried to use netdiscover -i wlan0mon but it gives the error "not an ethernet interface".
