Slow ARP poisoning attack on virtual box using Mininet VM #786

Closed rubik8 closed 6 years ago

rubik8 commented 7 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to exploit ARP poisoning on a simple Mininet VM (http://mininet.org/) topology with 3 nodes (Server, Client, Attacker) and a legacy switch. Once the ARP spoofing starts, the connection between Server and Client becomes very slow. Can someone help me?

do you drop packets? do you do a lot of internet traffic? becoming slow is somewhat expected, because sometimes legit arp answers are stored in the arp table, so the packets can't flow to ettercap until the next arp reply
