ARP poisoning can be part of the mix when someone *without infrastructure admin access* tries to sniff traffic on a switched network. ARP poisoning isn't needed by a sniffer who has admin access to the infrastructure, or on a shared-media network. If, as an admin, you want to protect your users from sniffing by intruders, then ARP poisoning is one of the things you should watch for.

Is there any way to detect if a sniffer is being used to analyze my traffic before it gets onto the Internet? Also is it required for a sniffer to have an IP address or can it sniff while remaining "uncontactable" on the network? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.

Hello, if the sniffing is done through arp poisoning, you can install arpwatch.
