Configuring ARP attack protection

About ARP attack protection

The device can provide multiple features to detect and prevent ARP attacks and viruses in the LAN. An attacker can exploit ARP vulnerabilities to attack network devices in the following ways:

·     Sends a large number of unresolvable IP packets to have the receiving device busy with resolving IP addresses until its CPU is overloaded. Unresolvable IP packets refer to IP packets for which ARP cannot find corresponding MAC addresses.

·     Sends a large number of ARP packets to overload the CPU of the receiving device.

·     Acts as a trusted user or gateway to send ARP packets so the receiving devices obtain incorrect ARP entries.

Configuring unresolvable IP attack protection

About unresolvable IP attack protection

If a device receives a large number of unresolvable IP packets from a host, the following situations can occur:

·     The device sends a large number of ARP requests, overloading the target subnets.

·     The device keeps trying to resolve the destination IP addresses, overloading its CPU.

To protect the device from such IP attacks, you can configure the following features:

·     ARP source suppression—Stops resolving packets from an IP address if the number of unresolvable IP packets from the IP address exceeds the upper limit within 5 seconds. The device continues ARP resolution when the interval elapses. This feature is applicable if the attack packets have the same source addresses.

·     ARP blackhole routing—Creates a blackhole route destined for an unresolved IP address. The device drops all matching packets until the blackhole route is deleted. A blackhole route is deleted when its aging timer is reached or the route becomes reachable.

After a blackhole route is created for an unresolved IP address, the device immediately starts the first ARP blackhole route probe by sending an ARP request. If the resolution fails, the device continues probing according to the probe settings. If the IP address resolution succeeds in a probe, the device converts the blackhole route to a normal route. If an ARP blackhole route ages out before the device finishes all probes, the device deletes the blackhole route and does not perform the remaining probes.

This feature is applicable regardless of whether the attack packets have the same source addresses.

Configuring ARP source suppression

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable ARP source suppression.

arp source-suppression enable

By default, ARP source suppression is disabled.

3.     Set the maximum number of unresolvable packets that the device can process per source IP address within 5 seconds.

arp source-suppression limit limit-value

By default, the maximum number is 10.

Configuring ARP blackhole routing

Restrictions and guidelines

Set the ARP blackhole route probe count to a big value, for example, 25. If the device fails to reach the destination IP address temporarily and the probe count is too small, all probes might finish before the problem is resolved. As a result, non-attack packets will be dropped. This setting can avoid such situation.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable ARP blackhole routing.

arp resolving-route enable

By default, ARP blackhole routing is enabled.

3.     (Optional.) Set the number of ARP blackhole route probes for each unresolved IP address.

arp resolving-route probe-count count

The default setting is three probes.

4.      (Optional.) Set the interval at which the device probes ARP blackhole routes.

arp resolving-route probe-interval interval

The default setting is 1 second.

Example: Configuring unresolvable IP attack protection

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, a LAN contains two areas: an R&D area in VLAN 10 and an office area in VLAN 20. Each area connects to the gateway (Device) through an access switch.

A large number of ARP requests are detected in the office area and are considered an attack caused by unresolvable IP packets. To prevent the attack, configure ARP source suppression or ARP blackhole routing.

Figure 1 Network diagram

Procedure

·     If the attack packets have the same source address, configure ARP source suppression:

# Enable ARP source suppression.

<Device> system-view

[Device] arp source-suppression enable

# Configure the device to process a maximum of 100 unresolvable packets per source IP address within 5 seconds.

[Device] arp source-suppression limit 100

·     If the attack packets have different source addresses, configure ARP blackhole routing:

# Enable ARP blackhole routing.

[Device] arp resolving-route enable

Configuring source MAC-based ARP attack detection

About source MAC-based ARP attack detection

This feature checks the number of ARP packets delivered to the CPU. If the number of packets from the same MAC address within 5 seconds exceeds a threshold, the device generates an ARP attack entry for the MAC address. If the ARP logging feature is enabled, the device handles the attack by using either of the following methods before the ARP attack entry ages out:

·     Monitor—Only generates log messages.

·     Filter—Generates log messages and filters out subsequent ARP packets from the MAC address.

To enable the ARP logging feature, use the arp check log enable command. For information about the ARP logging feature, see ARP configuration in Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

When an ARP attack entry ages out, ARP packets sourced from the MAC address in the entry can be processed correctly.

Restrictions and guidelines

When you change the handling method from monitor to filter, the configuration takes effect immediately. When you change the handling method from filter to monitor, the device continues filtering packets that match existing attack entries.

You can exclude the MAC addresses of some gateways and servers from this detection. This feature does not inspect ARP packets from those devices even if they are attackers.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable source MAC-based ARP attack detection and specify the handling method.

arp source-mac { filter | monitor }

By default, this feature is disabled.

3.     Set the threshold.

arp source-mac threshold threshold-value

By default, the threshold for source MAC-based ARP attack detection is 30.

4.     Set the aging timer for ARP attack entries.

arp source-mac aging-time time

By default, the lifetime is 300 seconds.

5.     (Optional.) Exclude specific MAC addresses from this detection.

arp source-mac exclude-mac mac-address&<1-10>

By default, no MAC address is excluded.

Display and maintenance commands for source MAC-based ARP attack detection

Execute display commands in any view.

 

Task

Command

Display ARP attack entries detected by source MAC-based ARP attack detection.

In standalone mode:

display arp source-mac [ interface interface-type interface-number ]

In IRF mode:

display arp source-mac { interface interface-type interface-number | slot slot-number }

Example: Configuring source MAC-based ARP attack detection

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 2, the hosts access the Internet through a gateway (Device). If malicious users send a large number of ARP requests to the gateway, the gateway might crash and cannot process requests from the clients. To solve this problem, configure source MAC-based ARP attack detection on the gateway.

Figure 2  Network diagram

Procedure

# Enable source MAC-based ARP attack detection, and specify the handling method as filter.

<Device> system-view

# Exclude MAC address 0012-3f86-e94c from this detection.

[Device] arp source-mac exclude-mac 0012-3f86-e94c

Configuring ARP packet source MAC consistency check

About ARP packet source MAC consistency check

This feature enables a gateway to filter out ARP packets whose source MAC address in the Ethernet header is different from the sender MAC address in the message body. This feature allows the gateway to learn correct ARP entries.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable ARP packet source MAC address consistency check.

arp valid-check enable

By default, ARP packet source MAC address consistency check is disabled.

Configuring ARP active acknowledgement

About ARP active acknowledgement

Configure this feature on gateways to prevent user spoofing.

ARP active acknowledgement prevents a gateway from generating incorrect ARP entries.

In strict mode, a gateway performs more strict validity checks before creating an ARP entry:

·     Upon receiving an ARP request destined for the gateway, the gateway sends an ARP reply but does not create an ARP entry.

·     Upon receiving an ARP reply, the gateway determines whether it has resolved the sender IP address:

¡     If yes, the gateway performs active acknowledgement. When the ARP reply is verified as valid, the gateway creates an ARP entry.

¡     If no, the gateway discards the packet.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable the ARP active acknowledgement feature.

arp active-ack [ strict ] enable

By default, this feature is disabled.

For ARP active acknowledgement to take effect in strict mode, make sure ARP blackhole routing is enabled.

Configuring authorized ARP

About authorized ARP

Authorized ARP entries are generated based on the DHCP clients' address leases on the DHCP server or dynamic client entries on the DHCP relay agent. For more information about DHCP server and DHCP relay agent, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

Use this feature to prevent user spoofing and to allow only authorized clients to access network resources.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

Supported interface types include Layer 3 Ethernet interface, Layer 3 Ethernet subinterface, Layer 3 aggregate interface, Layer 3 aggregate subinterface, and VLAN interface.

3.     Enable authorized ARP on the interface.

arp authorized enable

By default, authorized ARP is disabled.

Example: Configuring authorized ARP on a DHCP server

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 3, configure authorized ARP on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of Device A (a DHCP server) to ensure user validity.

Figure 3 Network diagram

The output shows that Device A assigned the IP address 10.10.1.2 to Device C.

Device C must use the IP address and MAC address in the authorized ARP entry to communicate with Device B. Otherwise, the communication fails. Thus the user validity is ensured.

Configuring ARP attack detection

About ARP attack detection

ARP attack detection enables access devices to block ARP packets from unauthorized clients to prevent user spoofing and gateway spoofing attacks.

ARP attack detection provides the following features:

·     User validity check.

·     ARP packet validity check.

·     ARP restricted forwarding.

·     ARP attack detection logging.

If both ARP packet validity check and user validity check are enabled, the former one applies first, and then the latter applies.

Do not configure ARP attack detection together with ARP snooping. Otherwise, ARP snooping entries cannot be generated.

Hardware compatibility with ARP attack detection

This feature/command is supported only on the following ports:

Configuring user validity check

About user validity check

User validity check does not check ARP packets received on ARP trusted interfaces. This feature compares the sender IP and sender MAC in the ARP packet received on an ARP untrusted interface with the matching criteria in the following order:

1.     User validity check rules.

¡     If a match is found, the device processes the ARP packet according to the rule.

¡     If no match is found or no user validity check rule is configured, proceeds to step 2.

2.     Static IP source guard bindings, 802.1X security entries, and DHCP snooping entries.

¡     If a match is found, the device forwards the ARP packet.

¡     If no match is found, the device discards the ARP packet.

Static IP source guard bindings are created by using the ip source binding command. For more information, see "Configuring IP source guard."

DHCP snooping entries are automatically generated by DHCP snooping. For more information, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

802.1X security entries record the IP-to-MAC mappings for 802.1X clients. After a client passes 802.1X authentication and uploads its IP address to an ARP attack detection enabled device, the device automatically generates an 802.1X security entry. The 802.1X client must be enabled to upload its IP address to the device. For more information, see "Configuring 802.1X."

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure user validity check, make sure one or more of the following items are configured:

·     User validity check rules.

·     Static IP source guard bindings.

·     DHCP snooping.

·     802.1X.

If none of the items is configured, all incoming ARP packets on ARP untrusted interfaces are discarded.

Specify an IP address, a MAC address, and a VLAN where ARP attack detection is enabled for an IP source guard binding. Otherwise, no ARP packets can match the IP source guard binding.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     (Optional.) Configure a user validity check rule.

arp detection rule rule-id { deny | permit } ip { ip-address [ mask ] | any } mac { mac-address [ mask ] | any } [ vlan vlan-id ]

By default, no user validity check rules are configured.

3.     Enter VLAN view.

By default, ARP attack detection is disabled.

5.     (Optional.) Configure an interface that does not require ARP user validity check as a trusted interface.

a.     Return to system view.

quit

b.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

Supported interface types include Layer 2 Ethernet interface and Layer 2 aggregate interface.

c.     Configure the interface as a trusted interface excluded from ARP attack detection.

arp detection trust

By default, an interface is untrusted.

Configuring ARP packet validity check

About ARP packet validity check

ARP packet validity check does not check ARP packets received on ARP trusted interfaces. To check ARP packets received on untrusted interfaces, you can specify the following objects to be checked:

·     src-mac—Checks whether the sender MAC address in the message body is identical to the source MAC address in the Ethernet header. If they are identical, the packet is forwarded. Otherwise, the packet is discarded.

·     dst-mac—Checks the target MAC address of ARP replies. If the target MAC address is all-zero, all-one, or inconsistent with the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header, the packet is considered invalid and discarded.

·     ip—Checks the sender and target IP addresses of ARP replies, and the sender IP address of ARP requests. All-one or multicast IP addresses are considered invalid and the corresponding packets are discarded.

Prerequisites

Before you configure ARP packet validity check, you must first configure user validity check. For more information about user validity check configuration, see "Configuring user validity check."

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

Supported interface types include Layer 2 Ethernet interface and Layer 2 aggregate interface.

b.     Configure the interface as a trusted interface excluded from ARP attack detection.

arp detection trust

By default, an interface is untrusted.

Configuring ARP restricted forwarding

About ARP restricted forwarding

ARP restricted forwarding does not take effect on ARP packets received on ARP trusted interfaces and forwards the ARP packets correctly. This feature controls the forwarding of ARP packets that are received on untrusted interfaces and have passed user validity check as follows:

·     If the packets are ARP requests, they are forwarded through the trusted interface.

·     If the packets are ARP replies, they are forwarded according to their destination MAC address. If no match is found in the MAC address table, they are forwarded through the trusted interface.

Restrictions and guidelines

ARP restricted forwarding does not apply to ARP packets that use multiport destination MAC addresses.

Prerequisites

Configure user validity check before you configure ARP restricted forwarding. For information about user validity check configuration, see "Configuring user validity check."

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

# Enable DHCP snooping, and configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 as a DHCP trusted interface.

<DeviceB> system-view

[DeviceB] dhcp snooping enable

[DeviceB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/3

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] dhcp snooping trust

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] quit

# Enable ARP attack detection for user validity check.

[DeviceB] vlan 10

[DeviceB-vlan10] arp detection enable

# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 as an ARP trusted interface.

[DeviceB-vlan10] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/3

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] arp detection trust

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] quit

# Configure a static IP source guard entry on interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/2.

[DeviceB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] ip source binding ip-address 10.1.1.6 mac-address 0001-0203-0607 vlan 10

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] quit

# Enable ARP packet validity check by checking the MAC addresses and IP addresses of ARP packets.

[DeviceB] arp detection validate dst-mac ip src-mac

# Configure port isolation.

[DeviceB] port-isolate group 1

[DeviceB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port-isolate enable group 1

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit

[DeviceB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] port-isolate enable group 1

[DeviceB-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] quit

After the configurations are completed, Device B first checks the validity of ARP packets received on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 1/0/2. If the ARP packets are confirmed valid, Device B performs user validity check by using the static IP source guard bindings and finally DHCP snooping entries. However, ARP broadcast requests sent from Host A can pass the check on Device B and reach Host B. Port isolation fails.

# Enable ARP restricted forwarding.

[DeviceB] vlan 10

[DeviceB-vlan10] arp restricted-forwarding enable

[DeviceB-vlan10] quit

Verifying the configuration

# Verify that Device B forwards ARP broadcast requests from Host A to Device A through the trusted interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/3. Host B cannot receive such packets. Port isolation operates correctly.

Configuring ARP scanning and fixed ARP

About ARP scanning and fixed ARP

ARP scanning is typically used together with the fixed ARP feature in small-scale and stable networks.

ARP scanning automatically creates ARP entries for devices in an address range. The device performs ARP scanning in the following steps:

1.     Sends ARP requests for each IP address in the address range.

2.     Obtains their MAC addresses through received ARP replies.

3.     Creates dynamic ARP entries.

Fixed ARP converts existing dynamic ARP entries (including those generated through ARP scanning) to static ARP entries. These static ARP entries are of the same attributes as the ARP entries that are manually configured. This feature prevents ARP entries from being modified by attackers.

Restrictions and guidelines

IP addresses in existing ARP entries are not scanned.

ARP scanning will take some time. To stop an ongoing scan, press Ctrl + C. Dynamic ARP entries are created based on ARP replies received before the scan is terminated.

Due to the limit on the total number of static ARP entries, some dynamic ARP entries might fail the conversion.

The arp fixup command is a one-time operation. You can use this command again to convert the dynamic ARP entries learned later to static.

To delete a static ARP entry converted from a dynamic one, use the undo arp ip-address [ vpn-instance-name ] command. You can also use the reset arp all command to delete all ARP entries or the reset arp static command to delete all static ARP entries.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Trigger an ARP scanning.

arp scan [ start-ip-address to end-ip-address ]

4.     Return to system view.

quit

5.     Convert existing dynamic ARP entries to static ARP entries.

arp fixup

Configuring ARP gateway protection

About ARP gateway protection

Configure this feature on interfaces not connected with a gateway to prevent gateway spoofing attacks.

When such an interface receives an ARP packet, it checks whether the sender IP address in the packet is consistent with that of any protected gateway. If yes, it discards the packet. If not, it handles the packet correctly.

Restrictions and guidelines

You can enable ARP gateway protection for a maximum of eight gateways on an interface.

Do not configure both the arp filter source and arp filter binding commands on an interface.

If ARP gateway protection works with ARP attack detection, ARP snooping, and ARP fast-reply, ARP gateway protection applies first.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Enable ARP gateway protection for the specified gateway.

arp filter source ip-address

By default, ARP gateway protection is disabled.

Configuring ARP filtering

ARP filtering

The ARP filtering feature can prevent gateway spoofing and user spoofing attacks.

An interface enabled with this feature checks the sender IP and MAC addresses in a received ARP packet against permitted entries. If a match is found, the packet is handled correctly. If not, the packet is discarded.

Restrictions and guidelines

You can configure a maximum of eight permitted entries on an interface.

Do not configure both the arp filter source and arp filter binding commands on an interface.

If ARP filtering works with ARP attack detection, ARP snooping, and ARP fast-reply, ARP filtering applies first.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Enable ARP filtering and configure a permitted entry.

arp filter binding ip-address mac-address

By default, ARP filtering is disabled.
