## 1. Detect ARP Poisoning and promiscuous mode in a switched network

If you have a doubt on a target machine, ping it.

```
hping3 -c 1000000000 192.168.18.110
```

Now open Wireshark and edit preferences. Click on protocols options

From ARP menus, select detect ARP and IP spoofing.

Click **Analyze** from the menu bar and select **Expert Information** from the drop-down options. The **Wireshark . Expert Information** window appears; click to expand the **Warning** node labeled **Duplicate IP address configured (10.10.1.11)**, running on the **ARP/RARP** protocol.

Arrange the **Wireshark . Expert Information** window above the **Wireshark** window so that you can view the packet number and the **Packet details** section. In the **Wireshark . Expert Information** window, click any packet (here, **463**).

On selecting the packet number, **Wireshark** highlights the packet, and its associated information is displayed under the packet details section. Close the **Wireshark . Expert Information** window.  The warnings highlighted in yellow indicate that duplicate IP addresses have been detected at one MAC address, as shown in the screenshot.

Requires use of school and work emails.

We can use hubu framework for arp poisoning

```
hubu.arp.poison 192.168.18.11 192.168.18.12
```

In the diagnosis tab, we can locate the ARP warning.
