Taranis Released (CAM Table Poisoning for Switched Ethernet Networks)  |  (2001/09/06 12:00)

I wrote a paper and a tool to perform CAM table poisoning on ethernet switches. From the README: Taranis redirects traffic on switch hardware by sending spoofed ethernet traffic. This is not the same as an ARP poisoning attack as it affects only the switch, and doesn't rely on ARP packets. Plus, it is virtually invisible because the packets it sends aren't seen on any other port on the switch. Evading detection by an IDS that may be listening on a monitoring port is as simple as changing the type of packet that is sent by the packet spoofing thread. Full information Here
