Andrew,
When an AP's broadcasting features are disabled, Kismet sees the access
point, and marks it as <no ssid>. After a new client associates with
that access point, in the RESP packet, the ssid is transmitted, and
Kismet will fill in the ssid. I don't believe any other tools handle
the process any differently.
Thank You,
Christopher Blume
