  Yersinia - Layer 2 Attack Framework
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY



DETAILS

Yersinia implements several attacks for the following protocols: Spanning 
Tree (STP), Cisco Discovery (CDP), Dynamic Host Configuration (DHCP), Hot 
Standby Router (HSRP), Dynamic Trunking (DTP), 802.1q and VLAN Trunking 
(VTP), helping the pen-tester in different tasks, e.g:

 - Becoming the root role in the Spanning Tree
 - Creating virtual CDP neighbors
 - Setting up rogue DHCP Servers
 - Becoming the active router in a HSRP scenario
 - Enabling trunk
 - Performing ARP spoofing over VLAN Hopping
 - Adding/deleting VLANs (via VTP)
 - more..

It is a multithreaded application with three main modes: command line, 
network client and ncurses GUI, allowing multiple users to launch multiple 
attacks simultaneously.
