Re: ARP spoofing attacks

The best way i know of thus far is to enable "port security" in some form
or another.  Cisco switches can lock the port down to only allow a certain
MAC.  If you spoof...the port drops.

Arpwatch and a NIDS can also watch for this type of traffic...but it is
spotty and requires the architecture/heirarchy to be setup correctly for
it to work properly.

Cheers,
-Chris
