ArpON
Computer software project From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ArpON (ARP handler inspection)[1] is a computer software project to improve network security.[2] It has attracted interest among network managers[3][4][5][6][7] and academic researchers[8][9][10][11][12][13] and is frequently cited as a means of protecting against ARP-based attacks.[14][15][16]

Motivation
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) has many security issues. These include the Man In The Middle (MITM) attack through the ARP spoofing,[17] ARP cache poisoning,[18][19][20] Denial of Service[21] and ARP poison routing attacks.[22][23][24]
Solution
ArpON is a host-based solution that makes the ARP secure and avoids the man-in-the-middle attack through ARP spoofing, ARP cache poisoning or ARP poison routing. This is possible using three kinds of anti-ARP-spoofing techniques:
- SARPI (Static ARP Inspection) for the statically configured networks without DHCP;[25]
- DARPI (Dynamic ARP Inspection) for the dynamically configured networks with DHCP;[25]
- HARPI (Hybrid ARP Inspection) for the statically and dynamically configured networks with DHCP.[25]
The goal of ArpON is therefore to provide a secure and efficient network daemon that provides the SARPI, DARPI and HARPI anti-ARP-spoofing technique, thus making the ARP standardized protocol secure from any foreign intrusion.[citation needed]
