  • Page 310: Mitigating Arp Spoofing Attacks Using Packet Content Acl

    IP address is known. This protocol is vulnerable because it can spoof the IP and MAC information in the ARP packets to attack a LAN (known as ARP spoofing). This document is intended to introduce ARP protocol, ARP spoofing attacks, and the counter measure brought by D-Link's switches to counter the ARP spoofing attack. •...

If the address is not in its Forwarding Table, the switch will learn PC A’s MAC and the associated port into its Forwarding Table.

The ARP reply will be then encapsulated into the Ethernet frame again and sent back to the sender.

  • Page 315 • Prevent ARP spoofing via packet content ACL Concerning the common DoS attack today caused by the ARP spoofing, D-Link managed switch can effectively mitigate it via its unique Packet Content ACL. For that reason the basic ACL can only filter ARP packets based on packet type, VLAN ID, Source and Destination MAC information, there is a need for further inspections of ARP packets.
