ARP Poisoning is a technique by which an attacker sends (spoofed)
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages onto a local area network.
It is also known as ARP spoofing, ARP cache poisoning, and ARP poison routing.

There are many ways to detect ARP Attacks, but the three common and effective
ways to detect ARP Poisoning Attacks are:
- ARP Tables
- XArp Tool
- Wireshark
- ARP Detector v1.0 (tool specially made by us)
Using ARP Tables
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is the method for finding a host's Link
Layer (MAC) address when only its IP address is known. The ARP table is
used to maintain a correlation between each MAC address and its
corresponding IP address. The ARP table can be manually entered by the
user. User entries are not aged out.
Using XArp Tool
XArp is a security application that uses advanced techniques to detect
ARP-based attacks. Using active and passive modules XArp detects hackers
inside your network.
Using Wireshark
Wireshark is a free and open-source network protocol analyzer. It is
used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and
communications protocol development, and education. Mainly designed to
help network administrators to keep track of what is happening in
their network.
Using ARP Detector v1.0

Problems with detection
- Detection is not the same as prevention. Above mentioned methods will help you detect the ARP Attacks if any, but it would be better if we can prevent them.
- These methods only work against ARP Spoofing or Poisoning but what about other Man-in-the-Middle Attacks.
We hope this helps. If any suggestions or doubts you can add a comment and
we will reply as soon as possible.
