Hi,
On a switched network, and given a DHCP-assigned
IP address, how do you figure out which node
sent a particular frame? What if the offending
node is offline/gets a new lease with a spoofed
MAC address/sends a packet with a spoofed IP?
TIA
TIA
And secondly, if you can recieve the frame, just look at the source ether
address, assuming that that wasn't spoofed too. If it was spoofed, then you
will have to walk through the FDB on each switch until you find what physical
port the spoofed ether is appearing on. Once you have that you can trace the
physical cable to the offending machine.

Given this scenario, how do we trace which machine sent the spoofed
packets, if its possible?
