Netgear M5300-28G-POE+ (GSM7228PSv1h2) - 12-Port Managed Gigabit Switch Ratgeber Für Administratoren

Dynamic ARP inspection (DAI) is a security feature that rejects invalid and malicious ARP 
packets. The feature prevents a class of man-in-the-middle attacks, where an unfriendly 
station intercepts traffic for other stations by poisoning the ARP caches of its unsuspecting 
neighbors. The miscreant sends ARP requests or responses mapping another station’s IP 
address to its own MAC address.

DAI relies on DHCP snooping. DHCP snooping listens to DHCP message exchanges and 
builds a bindings database of valid tuples (MAC address, IP address, VLAN interface).

When DAI is enabled, the switch drops ARP packet if the sender MAC address and sender 
IP address do not match an entry in the DHCP snooping bindings database. However, it can 
be overcome through static mappings. Static mappings are useful when hosts configure 
static IP addresses, DHCP snooping cannot be run, or other switches in the network do not 
run dynamic ARP inspection. A static mapping associates an IP address to a MAC address 
on a VLAN.
