Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) primarily features two key functionalities: it maps IP addresses to MAC addresses, enabling devices on a local network to communicate effectively. Additionally, ARP operates within a local area network (LAN) and utilizes broadcast messages to discover the MAC address corresponding to a specific IP address, facilitating the transmission of data packets between devices.
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.
An ARP table.
Dynamic ARP table entries are created whne a client makes an ARP request that cannot be satisfied by data already in the ARP table.
