esses and replies to the client with DHCP-OFFER packet carrying the IP address and
other information.
3 DHCP-REQUEST Stage: In the situation that there are several DHCP servers sending the
DHCP-OFFER packets, the client will only respond to the first received DHCP-OFFER
packet and broadcast the DHCP-REQUEST packet which includes the assigned IP
address of the DHCP-OFFER packet.
4 DHCP-ACK Stage: Since the DHCP-REQUEST packet is broadcasted, all DHCP servers
on the network segment can receive it. However, only the requested server processes the
request. If the DHCP server acknowledges assigning this IP address to the client, it will
send the DHCP-ACK packet back to the client. Otherwise, the Server will send the
DHCP-NAK packet to refuse assigning this IP address to the client.
DHCP Cheating Attack
During the working process of DHCP, generally there is no authentication mechanism between
Server and Client. If there are several DHCP servers in the network, network confusion and
security problem will happen. The common cases incurring the illegal DHCP servers are the
following two:
1 It’s common that the illegal DHCP server is manually configured by the user by mistake.
2 Hacker exhausted the IP addresses of the normal DHCP server and then pretended to be
a legal DHCP server to assign the IP addresses and the other parameters to Clients. For
example, hacker used the pretended DHCP server to assign a modified DNS server
address to users so as to induce the users to the evil financial website or electronic trading
website and cheat the users of their accounts and passwords. The following figure
illustrates the DHCP Cheating Attack implementation procedure.

DHCP Filtering feature allows only the trusted ports to forward DHCP packets and thereby
ensures that users get proper IP addresses. DHCP Filtering is to monitor the process of hosts
obtaining the IP addresses from DHCP servers, and record the IP address, MAC address, VLAN
and the connected Port number of the Host for automatic binding. DHCP Filtering feature prevents
