The gateway then thinks that the attacker is the client, and forwards all packets addressed to the client to it. As a result, the attacker is able to sniff all packets to and from the client. Other attacks using ARP spoofing include: • broadcast-an attacker can broadcast an ARP reply that specifies FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF as the gateway's MAC address, resulting in all clients broadcasting all internet-bound packets. • MAC flooding-an attacker can send fraudulent ARP messages to the gateway until the ARP cache is exhausted, after which, traffic from the gateway is broadcast. • denial of service-an attacker can send a fraudulent ARP messages to a client to associate a false MAC address with the gateway address, which would blackhole all internet-bound packets from the client. Note: DAI uses entries in the L2SysFlow CAM region, a sub-region of SystemFlow. One CAM entry is required for every DAI-enabled VLAN, and you can enable DAI on up to 16 VLANs on a system. However, the ExaScale default CAM profile allocates only 9 entries to the L2SysFlow region for DAI. You can configure 10 to 16 DAI-enabled VLANs by allocating more CAM space to the L2SysFlow region before enabling DAI. SystemFlow has 102 entries by default. This region is comprised of two sub-regions: L2Protocol and L2SystemFlow. L2Protocol has 87 entries, and L2SystemFlow has 15 entries. Six L2SystemFlow entries are used by Layer 2 protocols, leaving 9 for DAI. L2Protocol can have a maximum of 100 entries, and this region must be expanded to capacity before you can increase the size of L2SystemFlow. This is relevant when you are enabling DAI on VLANs. If, for example, you want to enable DAI on 16 VLANs, you need 7 more entries; in this case, reconfigure the SystemFlow region for 122 entries: layer-2 eg-acl value fib value frrp value ing-acl value learn value l2pt value qos value system-flow 122 The logic is as follows: L2Protocol has 87 entries by default and must be expanded to its maximum capacity, 100 entries, before L2SystemFlow can be increased; therefore 13 more L2Protocol entries are required. L2SystemFlow has 15 entries by default, but only 9 are for DAI; to enable DAI on 16 VLANs, 7 more entries are required. 87 L2Protocol + 13 additional L2Protocol + 15 L2SystemFlow + 7 additional L2SystemFlow equals 122.
