Implementation of IP Multicast Network Specific Attacks on GNS3
Göksel Uçtu, Mustafa Alkan · 2023
Multicast networks, while efficient in data transmission, are susceptible to targeted attacks. Leveraging GNS3’s capabilities, this study emulates and analyzes three types of multicast attacks: fake rendezvous point attack, IGMP flood, and IGMP Leave attacks. Through realistic emulation performed via GNS3, the research sheds light on attack implementation. The results offer insights into investigating multicast vulnerabilities, benefiting security practitioners and researchers alike. This work enhances understanding of multicast network attacks, presenting a practical approach to evaluating and investigating against potential threats.
