Link layer LAN network security
Sedláček, Jiří ; Grenar, David (referee) ; Slavíček, Karel (advisor)
The bachelor‘s thesis is about security concerning local area networks of the data link layer. The goal of the thesis is to characterize basic functioning of the ISO/OSI reference model as well as describing how the data link layer works to understand the topic, specify the possibilities of attacking the data link layer (for example rogue DHCP server, ARP spoofing, CAM table overflow, attacking the spanning tree protocol and others) and possible security measures to protect against the attacks. The purpose of the thesis is also a suggestion for assembling an experimental network relating to the topic of the thesis. Theoretical part determines the most important protocols of the data link layer, methods of abusing them and protection of those protocols. The practical part contains a brief description of the attacks, used utilities for accomplishing the attacks, a network topology, execution of the attacks, detection and protection against the attacks as well as briefly summarizing the results. The thesis also sums up some of the possible recommended configuration to repel the attacks and suggesting how to behave in a cyber environment. For the purpose of simulating the attacks, Kali Linux and Windows 10 are the operating systems that were used the most in this thesis.
