What network attack seeks to create a DoS for clients by preventing them from being able to obtain a DHCP lease?

  • CAM table attack
  • IP address spoofing
  • DHCP spoofing
  • DHCP starvation
    Explanation:

    DCHP starvation attacks are launched by an attacker with the intent to create a DoS for DHCP clients. To accomplish this goal, the attacker uses a tool that sends many DHCPDISCOVER messages in order to lease the entire pool of available IP addresses, thus denying them to legitimate hosts.
