i guess I got them mixed up. Now I can't remember the tool that uses ICMP redirects to do the same thing. I thought the other one did the arp spoofing. I'll try and find it as it's more clever. Priscilla Oppenheimer wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I read up on

Hi Group, I have been sniffing my broadband connection to my ISP today and have a few questions. My main gripe is that I'm being sent around 100 Arp requests per minute, which obviously I cannot resolve. These ARP requests are all originating from my default G/W at the ISP trying to

It sounds like you are sharing the broadcast domain with a bunch of other stations. The network is bridging on the edge. I think this is normal for cable modem systems. Is that what you are on? Priscilla At 12:23 PM 1/2/02, Phil Barker wrote: Hi Group, I have been sniffing my broadband

Hi, Just to expand on this... The 224.0.0.1 multicast query you're seeing is coming from the cable modem I bet. I have a Surfboard 3100 cable modem and it sends out IGMP queries on 224.0.0.1 frequently. I'm not sure why the cable modem is doing multicast and haven't really looked into it. I

Having proxy ARP enabled on the router would cause the router to send ARP replies not requests. The fact that he sees ARP requests isn't surprising. He's on a shared network. On a shared network you see all the ARP requests from your local router to devices on your network. Priscilla At

Erick, you are seeing 224.0.0.1 Multicast Queries because 224.0.0.1 is reserved for all systems on segment. This is the IP that the IGMP queries are going out to allowing the Router to determine if it needs to request upstream for any Multicast Streams. It is pretty common to see that.. Mike

As everyone else has said, this is normal for a shared access netowrk. Look for routing protocol updates and other things as well . On ATT's cable-modem network you can see the ospf hello updates, who the DR and BDR is and other things. It can be fun. Try dsniff or some other program and you

Dsniff uses icmp default gateway redirects (the ICMP message that tells hosts that a differnt router has a better path to the destination network). This will automatically make the user's PC redirect all traffic to your PC dynamically (the client never knows about it), because he thinks you are a

I read up on it. It appears to have been developed for beneficial purposes but is also a hacker tool. The written material says its a set of tools actually The relevant one uses ARP, not ICMP. (There was no mention of ICMP being used.) It sends an ARP reply for the IP address of the default
