Abstract:The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a protocol that converts Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to Media Access Control (MAC) addresses. Due to a security issue known as "Man in the Middle," identity theft is feasible using the ARP protocol. ARP spoofing is one of the weaknesses in wireless networks when an attacker effectively masquerades as a legitimate one. Spoofing attacks will reduce network performance and break several security measures. In networks that use MAC address-based filtering to verify clie… Show more
