Description-en: versatile anti ARP poisoning daemon
ArpON (Arp handler inspectiON) is a portable handler daemon with some nice
tools to handle all ARP aspects.
It makes Arp a bit safer. This is possible using two kinds of anti Arp
Poisoning techniques, the first is based on SARPI or "Static Arp Inspection",
the second on DARPI or "Dynamic Arp Inspection" approach.
.
Features of ArpON include:
* Detects and blocks ARP Poisoning/Spoofing attacks in statically
configured networks (SARPI)
* Detects and blocks ARP Poisoning/Spoofing attacks in dynamically
configured (DHCP) networks (DARPI)
* Detects and blocks unidirectional and bidirectional ARP attacks
* Easily configurable via command line switches
* Works in userspace
* Can be a passive sniffer and capture all inbound/outbound ARP packets
