Restrictions for
Dynamic ARP Inspection
This section lists the
restrictions and guidelines for configuring Dynamic ARP Inspection on the
switch.
Dynamic ARP
inspection is an ingress security feature; it does not perform any egress
checking.
Dynamic ARP
inspection is not effective for hosts connected to switches that do not support
dynamic ARP inspection or that do not have this feature enabled. Because
man-in-the-middle attacks are limited to a single Layer 2 broadcast domain,
separate the domain with dynamic ARP inspection checks from the one with no
checking. This action secures the ARP caches of hosts in the domain enabled for
dynamic ARP inspection.
Dynamic ARP
inspection depends on the entries in the DHCP snooping binding database to
verify IP-to-MAC address bindings in incoming ARP requests and ARP responses.
Make sure to enable DHCP snooping to permit ARP packets that have dynamically
assigned IP addresses.
When DHCP
snooping is disabled or in non-DHCP environments, use ARP ACLs to permit or to
deny packets.
Dynamic ARP
inspection is supported on access ports, trunk ports, and EtherChannel ports.
Note
Do not enable
Dynamic ARP inspection on RSPAN VLANs. If Dynamic ARP inspection is enabled on
RSPAN VLANs, Dynamic ARP inspection packets might not reach the RSPAN
destination port.
A physical port
can join an EtherChannel port channel only when the trust state of the physical
port and the channel port match. Otherwise, the physical port remains suspended
in the port channel. A port channel inherits its trust state from the first
physical port that joins the channel. Consequently, the trust state of the
first physical port need not match the trust state of the channel.
Conversely, when
you change the trust state on the port channel, the switch configures a new
trust state on all the physical ports that comprise the channel.
The rate limit
is calculated separately on each switch in a switch stack. For a cross-stack
EtherChannel, this means that the actual rate limit might be higher than the
configured value. For example, if you set the rate limit to 30 pps on an
EtherChannel that has one port on switch 1 and one port on switch 2, each port
can receive packets at 29 pps without causing the EtherChannel to become
error-disabled.
The operating
rate for the port channel is cumulative across all the physical ports within
the channel. For example, if you configure the port channel with an ARP
rate-limit of 400 pps, all the interfaces combined on the channel receive an
aggregate 400 pps. The rate of incoming ARP packets on EtherChannel ports is
equal to the sum of the incoming rate of packets from all the channel members.
Configure the rate limit for EtherChannel ports only after examining the rate
of incoming ARP packets on the channel-port members.
The rate of
incoming packets on a physical port is checked against the port-channel
configuration rather than the physical-ports configuration. The rate-limit
configuration on a port channel is independent of the configuration on its
physical ports.
If the
EtherChannel receives more ARP packets than the configured rate, the channel
(including all physical ports) is placed in the error-disabled state.
Make sure to
limit the rate of ARP packets on incoming trunk ports. Configure trunk ports
with higher rates to reflect their aggregation and to handle packets across
multiple dynamic ARP inspection-enabled VLANs. You also can use the
ip arp inspection limit
none interface configuration command to make the rate unlimited.
A high rate-limit on one VLAN can cause a denial-of-service attack to other
VLANs when the software places the port in the error-disabled state.
When you enable
dynamic ARP inspection on the switch, policers that were configured to police
ARP traffic are no longer effective. The result is that all ARP traffic is sent
to the CPU.
Understanding Dynamic ARP Inspection
ARP provides IP communication within a Layer 2 broadcast domain by mapping an IP address to a MAC address. For example, Host
B wants to send information to Host A but does not have the MAC address of Host A in its ARP cache. Host B generates a broadcast
message for all hosts within the broadcast domain to obtain the MAC address associated with the IP address of Host A. All
hosts within the broadcast domain receive the ARP request, and Host A responds with its MAC address. However,because ARP allows
a gratuitous reply from a host even if an ARP request was not received, an ARP spoofing attack and the poisoning of ARP caches
can occur. After the attack, all traffic from the device under attack flows through the attacker’s computer and then to the
router, switch, or host.
A malicious user can attack hosts, switches, and routers connected to your Layer 2 network by poisoning the ARP caches of
systems connected to the subnet and by intercepting traffic intended for other hosts on the subnet. Figure 26-1 shows an example
of ARP cache poisoning.
Hosts A, B, and C are connected to the switch on interfaces A, B and C, all of which are on the same subnet. Their IP and
MAC addresses are shown in parentheses; for example, Host A uses IP address IA and MAC address MA. When Host A needs to communicate
to Host B at the IP layer, it broadcasts an ARP request for the MAC address associated with IP address IB. When the switch
and Host B receive the ARP request, they populate their ARP caches with an ARP binding for a host with the IP address IA and
a MAC address MA; for example, IP address IA is bound to MAC address MA. When Host B responds, the switch and Host A populate
their ARP caches with a binding for a host with the IP address IB and the MAC address MB.
Host C can poison the ARP caches of the switch, Host A, and Host B by broadcasting forged ARP responses with bindings for
a host with an IP address of IA (or IB) and a MAC address of MC. Hosts with poisoned ARP caches use the MAC address MC as
the destination MAC address for traffic intended for IA or IB. This means that Host C intercepts that traffic. Because Host
C knows the true MAC addresses associated with IA and IB, it can forward the intercepted traffic to those hosts by using the
correct MAC address as the destination. Host C has inserted itself into the traffic stream from Host A to Host B, the classic
man-in-the middleattack.
Dynamic ARP inspection is a security feature that validates ARP packets in a network. It intercepts, logs,and discards ARP
packets with invalid IP-to-MAC address bindings. This capability protects the network from certain man-in-the-middle attacks.
Dynamic ARP inspection ensures that only valid ARP requests and responses are relayed. The switch performs these activities:
Intercepts all ARP requests and responses on untrusted ports
Verifies that each of these intercepted packets has a valid IP-to-MAC address binding before updating the local ARP cache
or before forwarding the packet to the appropriate destination
Drops invalid ARP packets
Dynamic ARP inspection determines the validity of an ARP packet based on valid IP-to-MAC address bindings stored in a trusted
database, the DHCP snooping binding database. This database is built by DHCP snooping if DHCP snooping is enabled on the VLANs
and on the switch. If the ARP packet is received on a trusted interface, the switch forwards the packet without any checks.
On untrusted interfaces, the switch forwards the packet only if it is valid.
You enable dynamic ARP inspection on a per-VLAN basis by using the ip arp inspection vlanvlan-range global configuration command.
In non-DHCP environments, dynamic ARP inspection can validate ARP packets against user-configured ARP access control lists
(ACLs) for hosts with statically configured IP addresses. You define an ARP ACL by using the arp access-list acl-name global configuration command.
You can configure dynamic ARP inspection to drop ARP packets when the IP addresses in the packets are invalid or when the
MAC addresses in the body of the ARP packets do not match the addresses specified in the Ethernet header. Use the ip arp inspection validate {[src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip]} global configuration command.
Interface Trust States and Network Security
Dynamic ARP inspection associates a trust state with each interface on the switch. Packets arriving on trusted interfaces
bypass all dynamic ARP inspection validation checks, and those arriving on untrusted interfaces undergo the dynamic ARP inspection
validation process.
In a typical network configuration, you configure all switch ports connected to host ports as untrusted and configure all
switch ports connected to switches as trusted. With this configuration, all ARP packets entering the network from a given
switch bypass the security check. No other validation is needed at any other place in the VLAN or in the network. You configure
the trust setting by using theip arp inspection trust interface configuration command.
Caution
Use the trust state configuration carefully. Configuring interfaces as untrusted when they should betrusted can result in
a loss of connectivity.
In the following figure, assume that both Switch A and Switch B are running dynamic ARP inspection on the VLAN that includes
Host 1 and Host 2. If Host 1 and Host 2 acquire their IP addresses from the DHCP server connected to Switch A, only Switch
A binds the IP-to-MAC address of Host 1. Therefore, if the interface between Switch A and Switch B is untrusted, the ARP packets
from Host 1 are dropped by Switch B. Connectivity between Host 1 and Host 2 is lost.
Configuring interfaces to be trusted when they are actually untrusted leaves a security hole in the network. If Switch A is
not running dynamic ARP inspection, Host 1 can easily poison the ARP cache of Switch B (and Host 2, if the link between the
switches is configured as trusted). This condition can occur even though Switch B is running dynamic ARP inspection.
Dynamic ARP inspection ensures that hosts (on untrusted interfaces) connected to a switch running dynamic ARP inspection do
not poison the ARP caches of other hosts in the network. However, dynamic ARP inspection does not prevent hosts in other portions
of the network from poisoning the caches of the hosts that are connected to a switch running dynamic ARP inspection.
In cases in which some switches in a VLAN run dynamic ARP inspection and other switches do not, configure the interfaces connecting
such switches as untrusted. However, to validate the bindings of packets from nondynamic ARP inspection switches, configure
the switch running dynamic ARP inspection with ARP ACLs. When you cannot determine such bindings, at Layer 3, isolate switches
running dynamic ARP inspection from switches not running dynamic ARP inspection switches.
Note
Depending on the setup of the DHCP server and the network, it might not be possible to validate a given ARP packet on all
switches in the VLAN.
Rate Limiting of ARP
Packets
The switch CPU
performs dynamic ARP inspection validation checks; therefore, the number of
incoming ARP packets is rate-limited to prevent a denial-of-service attack. By
default, the rate for untrusted interfaces is 15 packets per second (pps).
Trusted interfaces are not rate-limited. You can change this setting by using
the
ip arp inspection limit interface configuration
command.
When the rate of
incoming ARP packets exceeds the configured limit, the switch places the port
in the error-disabled state. The port remains in that state until you
intervene. You can use the
errdisable recovery global configuration
command to enable error disable recovery so that ports automatically emerge
from this state after a specified timeout period.
Note
The rate limit for
an EtherChannel is applied separately to each switch in a stack. For example,
if a limit of 20 pps is configured on the EtherChannel, each switch with ports
in the EtherChannel can carry up to 20 pps. If any switch exceeds the limit,
the entire EtherChannel is placed into the error-disabled state.
Relative Priority of
ARP ACLs and DHCP Snooping Entries
Dynamic ARP inspection
uses the DHCP snooping binding database for the list of valid IP-to-MAC address
bindings.
ARP ACLs take
precedence over entries in the DHCP snooping binding database. The switch uses
ACLs only if you configure them by using the
ip arp inspection filter vlan global
configuration command. The switch first compares ARP packets to user-configured
ARP ACLs. If the ARP ACL denies the ARP packet, the switch also denies the
packet even if a valid binding exists in the database populated by DHCP
snooping.
Logging of Dropped Packets
When the switch drops a packet, it places an entry in the log buffer and then generates system messages on a rate-controlled
basis. After the message is generated, the switch clears the entry from the log buffer. Each log entry contains flow information,
such as the receiving VLAN, the port number, the source and destination IP addresses, and the source and destination MAC addresses.
You use the ip arp inspection log-buffer global configuration command to configure the number of entries in the buffer and the number of entries needed in the specified
interval to generate system messages. You specify the type of packets that are logged by using the ip arp inspection vlan logging global configuration command.
Default Dynamic ARP

The number
of entries in the log is 32.
The number

Per-VLAN logging
All denied or dropped ARP packets are logged.
Relative Priority of ARP ACLs and DHCP Snooping Entries
Dynamic ARP inspection uses the DHCP snooping binding database for the list of valid IP-to-MAC address bindings.
ARP ACLs take precedence over entries in the DHCP snooping binding database. The switch uses ACLs only if you configure them
by using the ip arp inspection filter vlan global configuration command. The switch first compares ARP packets to user-configured
ARP ACLs. If the ARP ACL denies the ARP packet, the switch also denies the packet even if a valid binding exists in the database
populated by DHCP snooping.
Configuring ARP ACLs
for Non-DHCP Environments
This procedure shows
how to configure dynamic ARP inspection when Switch B shown in Figure 2 does
not support dynamic ARP inspection or DHCP snooping.
If you configure
port 1 on Switch A as trusted, a security hole is created because both Switch A
and Host 1 could be attacked by either Switch B or Host 2. To prevent this
possibility, you must configure port 1 on Switch A as untrusted. To permit ARP
packets from Host 2, you must set up an ARP ACL and apply it to VLAN 1. If the
IP address of Host 2 is not static (it is impossible to apply the ACL
configuration on Switch A) you must separate Switch A from Switch B at Layer 3
and use a router to route packets between them.
Follow these steps
to configure an ARP ACL on Switch A. This procedure is required in non-DHCP
environments.

Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global
configuration mode.
Step 3
arp access-list
acl-name
Defines an ARP
ACL, and enters ARP access-list configuration mode. By default, no ARP access
lists are defined.
Note
At the end of
the ARP access list, there is an implicit
deny ip any mac
any command.
Step 4
permit ip host
sender-ip
mac
host
sender-mac
Permits ARP
packets from the specified host (Host 2).
Forsender-ip, enter
the IP address of Host 2.
For
sender-mac, enter the MAC address of Host 2.
Step 5
exit
Returns to
global configuration mode.
Step 6
ip arp inspection filter
arp-acl-name vlan
vlan-range [static]
Applies ARP ACL
to the VLAN. By default, no defined ARP ACLs are applied to any VLAN.
For
arp-acl-name, specify the name of the ACL created in
Step 2.
For
vlan-range, specify the VLAN that the switches and
hosts are in. You can specify a single VLAN identified by VLAN ID number, a
range of VLANs separated by a hyphen, or a series of VLANs separated by a
comma. The range is 1 to 4094.
(Optional)
Specify
static to treat implicit denies in the ARP ACL as explicit
denies and to drop packets that do not match any previous clauses in the ACL.
DHCP bindings are not used.
If you do
not specify this keyword, it means that there is no explicit deny in the ACL
that denies the packet, and DHCP bindings determine whether a packet is
permitted or denied if the packet does not match any clauses in the ACL.
ARP packets
containing only IP-to-MAC address bindings are compared against the ACL.
Packets are permitted only if the access list permits them.
Step 7
interface
interface-id
Specifies Switch
A interface that is connected to Switch B, and enters the interface
configuration mode.
Step 8
no ip arp inspection trust
Configures
Switch A interface that is connected to Switch B as untrusted.
By default, all
interfaces are untrusted.
For untrusted
interfaces, the switch intercepts all ARP requests and responses. It verifies
that the intercepted packets have valid IP-to-MAC address bindings before
updating the local cache and before forwarding the packet to the appropriate
destination. The switch drops invalid packets and logs them in the log buffer
according to the logging configuration specified with the
ip arp inspection vlan
logging global configuration command.

in the configuration file.
Configuring Dynamic
ARP Inspection in DHCP Environments
Before you begin
This procedure shows
how to configure dynamic ARP inspection when two switches support this feature.
Host 1 is connected to Switch A, and Host 2 is connected to Switch B. Both
switches are running dynamic ARP inspection on VLAN 1 where the hosts are
located. A DHCP server is connected to Switch A. Both hosts acquire their IP
addresses from the same DHCP server. Therefore, Switch A has the bindings for
Host 1 and Host 2, and Switch B has the binding for Host 2.
Note
Dynamic ARP
inspection depends on the entries in the DHCP snooping binding database to
verify IP-to-MAC address bindings in incoming ARP requests and ARP responses.
Make sure to enable DHCP snooping to permit ARP packets that have dynamically
assigned IP addresses.
Follow these steps
to configure dynamic ARP inspection. You must perform this procedure on both
switches. This procedure is required.
Procedure
Command or Action
Purpose
Step 1
enable
Example:
Switch> enable
Enables
privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2
show cdp
neighbors
Example:
Switch(config-if)#show cdp neighbors
Verify the
connection between the switches.
Step 3
configureterminal
Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global
configuration mode.
Step 4
ip arp inspection vlan
vlan-range
Example:
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection vlan 1
Enable dynamic
ARP inspection on a per-VLAN basis. By default, dynamic ARP inspection is
disabled on all VLANs. For vlan-range, specify a single VLAN identified by VLAN
ID number, a range of VLANs separated by a hyphen, or a series of VLANs
separated by a comma. The range is 1 to 4094. Specify the same VLAN ID for both
switches.
Step 5
Interfaceinterface-id
Example:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Specifies the
interface connected to the other switch, and enter interface configuration
mode.
Step 6
ip arp inspection trust
Example:
Switch(config-if)#ip arp inspection trust
Configures the
connection between the switches as trusted. By default, all interfaces are
untrusted.
The switch does
not check ARP packets that it receives from the other switch on the trusted
interface. It simply forwards the packets.
For untrusted
interfaces, the switch intercepts all ARP requests and responses. It verifies
that the intercepted packets have valid IP-to-MAC address bindings before
updating the local cache and before forwarding the packet to the appropriate
destination. The switch drops invalid packets and logs them in the log buffer
according to the logging configuration specified with the ip arp inspection
vlan logging global configuration command.
Step 7
end
Example:
Switch(config-if)#end
Returns to
privileged EXEC mode.
Step 8
show ip arp inspection interfaces
Example:
Verifies the
dynamic ARP inspection configuration on interfaces.
Step 9
show ip arp inspection vlan
vlan-range
Example:
Switch(config-if)#show ip arp inspection vlan 1
Verifies the
dynamic ARP inspection configuration on VLAN.
Step 10
show ip dhcp snooping binding
Example:
Switch(config-if)#show ip dhcp snooping binding
Verifies the
DHCP bindings.

Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global
configuration mode.
Step 13
configureterminal
Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global
configuration mode.
Limiting the Rate of
Incoming ARP Packets
The switch CPU
performs dynamic ARP inspection validation checks; therefore, the number of
incoming ARP packets is rate-limited to prevent a denial- of-service attack.
When the rate of
incoming ARP packets exceeds the configured limit, the switch places the port
in the error-disabled state. The port remains in that state until you enable
error-disabled recovery so that ports automatically emerge from this state
after a specified timeout period.
Note
Unless you
configure a rate limit on an interface, changing the trust state of the
interface also changes its rate limit to the default value for that trust
state. After you configure the rate limit, the interface retains the rate limit
even when its trust state is changed. If you enter the
no ip arp inspection limit interface
configuration command, the interface reverts to its default rate limit.
Follow these steps
to limit the rate of incoming ARP packets. This procedure is optional.
Procedure
Command or Action
Purpose
Step 1
enable
Example:
Switch> enable
Enables
privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2
configureterminal
Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global
configuration mode.
Step 3
interface
interface-id
Specifies the
interface to be rate-limited, and enter interface configuration mode.
Limits the rate
of incoming ARP requests and responses on the interface. The default rate is 15
pps on untrusted interfaces and unlimited on trusted interfaces. The burst
interval is 1 second.
The keywords
have these meanings:
For
ratepps, specify an upper
limit for the number of incoming packets processed per second. The range is 0
to 2048 pps.
(Optional)
For
burst intervalseconds,
specify the consecutive interval in seconds, over which the interface is
monitored for a high rate of ARP packets. The range is 1 to 15.
For
rate none, specify no upper limit for
the rate of incoming ARP packets that can be processed.
Step 5
exit
Returns to
global configuration mode.
Step 6
Use the
following commands:
errdisable detect cause arp-inspection
errdisable recovery
cause arp-inspection
errdisable recovery interval
interval
(Optional)
Enables error recovery from the dynamic ARP inspection error-disabled state,
and configure the dynamic ARP inspection recover mechanism variables.
By default,
recovery is disabled, and the recovery interval is 300 seconds.
For
intervalinterval, specify the time in seconds to
recover from the error-disabled state. The range is 30 to 86400.
Step 7
exit
Returns to

Dynamic ARP
inspection intercepts, logs, and discards ARP packets with invalid IP-to-MAC
address bindings. You can configure the switch to perform additional checks on
the destination MAC address, the sender and target IP addresses, and the source
MAC address.
Follow these steps
to perform specific checks on incoming ARP packets. This procedure is optional.

Step 2
configureterminal
Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Enters the global

Step 3
ip arp inspection validate {[src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip]}
Performs a
specific check on incoming ARP packets. By default, no checks are performed.
The keywords
have these meanings:
For
src-mac, check
the source MAC address in the Ethernet header against the sender MAC address in
the ARP body. This check is performed on both ARP requests and responses. When
enabled, packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are
dropped.
For
dst-mac, check
the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header against the target MAC
address in ARP body. This check is performed for ARP responses. When enabled,
packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are dropped.
For
ip, check the
ARP body for invalid and unexpected IP addresses. Addresses include 0.0.0.0,
255.255.255.255, and all IP multicast addresses. Sender IP addresses are
checked in all ARP requests and responses, and target IP addresses are checked
only in ARP responses.
You must specify
at least one of the keywords. Each command overrides the configuration of the
previous command; that is, if a command enables src and dst mac validations,
and a second command enables IP validation only, the src and dst mac
validations are disabled as a result of the second command.

Monitoring DAI
To monitor DAI, use the following commands:
Command
Description
clear ip arp inspection statistics
Clears dynamic ARP inspection statistics.
show ip arp inspection statistics [vlanvlan-range]
Displays statistics for forwarded, dropped, MAC validation failure, IP validation failure, ACL permitted and denied, and DHCP
permitted and denied packets for the specified VLAN. If no VLANs are specified or if a range is specified, displays information
only for VLANs with dynamic ARP inspection enabled (active).
clear ip arp inspection log
Clears the dynamic ARP inspection log buffer.
show ip arp inspection log
Displays the configuration and contents of the dynamic ARP inspection log buffer.
For the show ip arp inspection statistics command, the switch increments the number of forwarded packets for each ARP request and response packet on a trusted dynamic
ARP inspection port. The switch increments the number of ACL or DHCP permitted packets for each packet that is denied by source
MAC, destination MAC, or IP validation checks, and the switch increments the appropriate.
Verifying the DAI Configuration
To display and verify the DAI configuration, use the following commands:
Command
Description
show arp access-list [acl-name]
Displays detailed information about ARP ACLs.
show ip arp inspection interfaces [interface-id]
Displays the trust state and the rate limit of ARP packets for the specified interface or all interfaces.
show ip arp inspection vlanvlan-range
Displays the configuration and the operating state of dynamic ARP inspection for the specified VLAN. If no VLANs are specified
or
if a range is specified, displays information only for VLANs with dynamic ARP inspection enabled (active).
