...but the 1% of the times that it steals an ip adress...
Could someone explain how we're imagining this might happen? If my Dell Precision laptop is using the contended IP Address, then why didn't its interface's mac address get returned by the ARP who-has request for that IP?
- caf 15y agoThe problem may well be that specific ARP request - the one at 0.0180 in the original article. It appears to have a non-zero sender IP address, which means it doesn't conform to a classic ARP probe. The Dell Precision laptop, upon seeing an ARP request appearing to come from itself, might well decide that an address conflict is occuring.
