    ® xStack DGS-3200 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch How ARP Spoofing Attacks a Network ARP spoofing, also known as ARP poisoning, is a method to attack an Ethernet network which may allow an attacker to sniff data frames on a LAN, modify the traffic, or stop the traffic altogether (known as a Denial of Service – DoS attack). The principle of ARP spoofing is to send the fake or spoofed ARP messages to an Ethernet network.
