ARP Inspection
ARP Inspection validates the MAC-to-IP address bindings in Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
packets. It protects against ARP traffic with invalid address bindings, which forms the basis for
certain “man-in-the-middle” attacks. This is accomplished by intercepting all ARP requests and
responses and verifying each of these packets before the local ARP cache is updated or the packet
is forwarded to the appropriate destination, dropping any invalid ARP packets.
ARP Inspection determines the validity of an ARP packet based on valid IP-to-MAC address bindings
stored in a trusted database – the DHCP snooping binding database. ARP Inspection can also
validate ARP packets against user-configured ARP access control lists (ACLs) for hosts with
statically configured IP addresses.
This section describes commands used to configure ARP Inspection.
