relationship configured by atta
ck packets so that the switch makes mistake on transfer packets,
and takes an effect on the whole network. Or the switches are made used of by vicious
attackers, and they intercept and capture packets transferred by switches or attack other
switches, host computers or network equipment.
What the essential method on preventing attack and spoofing switches based on ARP in
networks is to disable switch automatic update function; the cheater can’t modify corrected
MAC address in order to avoid wrong packets transfer and can’t obtain other information. At
one time, it doesn’t interrupt the automatic learning function of ARP. Thus it prevents ARP
spoofing and attack to a great extent.
