Hi...

I think you can use the DHCP Snooping feature that is available on the
Cisco Switches.

Subject: Stopping Arp poison attacks


Hello there,

I am not a networking expert, but in my work as a pentester i often use
arp 
poison attacks to intercept interesting traffic.
If i recommend our customers to bind the MAC addresses of mission
critical 
servers' network interfaces to their respective ports on the routers and

switches, does that migitate most of the threat or am i missing
something 
important?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Peter.
