arp-wishper 📡

Welcome to the arp-wishper project! 🎉

Description

arp-wishper is an open-source project written in Rust. It listens to ARP requests on a network interface and responds to them based on a list of IP-MAC address mappings defined in a configuration file. With arp-wishper, you can easily create an ARP responder to handle network queries and provide the appropriate MAC address for each IP address.

How It Works

arp-wishper continuously monitors incoming ARP requests on the specified network interface. It checks if the request's target IP address matches any of the IP addresses in the configuration file. If a match is found, arp-wishper generates an ARP response with the corresponding MAC address and sends it back to the requester.

Installation

To install arp-wishper, ensure you have Rust and Cargo installed, then run the following command:

shell cargo install arp-wishper

Configuration Example

You can configure arp-wishper using a configuration file. Here's an example of the configuration file format: ```ini [Network] interface = eth0

[Hosts] ; ip = mac_address 192.168.1.2 = aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff 192.168.1.3 = 00:11:22:33:44:55 ```

In this example, the [Network] section specifies the network interface to listen on, and the [Hosts] section defines the IP-MAC address mappings. How to Run

To run arp-wishper with your configuration file, use the following command:

shell sudo arp-whisper config.ini

Replace config.ini with the path to your actual configuration file.
