Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Poisoning (or ARP Cache Poisoning) modifies the IP address associated with the MAC address of a device. In layman’s terms, it means that a hacker can insert themselves between an endpoint and router (for example) and pretend to be the router to the endpoint and pretend to be the endpoint to the router. All data traffic that is meant to flow between endpoint and router will now pass through the hacker’s device.

What are two potential network problems that can result from ARP operation?

Two potential network problems that can result from ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) operation are ARP spoofing and ARP cache poisoning. In ARP spoofing, an attacker sends false ARP messages to associate their MAC address with the IP address of another device, leading to man-in-the-middle attacks. ARP cache poisoning involves corrupting the ARP cache of a device by injecting incorrect mappings, which can disrupt network communication and redirect traffic maliciously. Both issues can compromise network security and integrity.

What is ARP Cache Poisoning?

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) spoofing, also known as ARP poisoning or ARP Poison Routing (APR), is a technique used to attack an Ethernet http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Ethernet or http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Wireless_network. ARP Spoofing may allow an attacker to http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Packet_sniffer http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Data_frame on a http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Local_area_network (LAN), modify the traffic, or stop the traffic altogether (known as a http://wiki.answers.com/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack). The attack can only be used on networks that actually make use of ARP and not another method of address resolution.
