Hello, all.I have read some documents about CAM table overflow(or mac flooding, switch jam) attack.
I have some questions about this.If some attacker executes macof for sometime, so CAM tables would be overflowed.
1. then attacker can see other traffic only which in a same VLAN? 2. or attacker can see all traffic(over vlan) which switch services, like dummy hub?
Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________확인하자. 오늘의 운세 무료 사주, 궁합, 작명, 전생 가이드 http://www.msn.co.kr/fortune/default.asp
