ABSTRACT: Network attack and defense is the research hotspot of Internet information security technology. Making use of VMware workstation and GNS3 virtualization technology, this paper builds a network attack and defense experimental platform according to typical three tier network architecture within a single computer. Firstly computer builds classical three tier network topology with GNS3 and creates multiple virtual machines bridged to the corresponding GNS3 topology node. Secondly hack uses Yersinia attack toolkits in the operating system of Ubuntu to rogue deceiving the real DHCP Server and Aggregated Switch with hot standby routing protocol (HSRP) through detailed experimental demonstration. Finally effective defensive measures is given and obtained valid experimental test. The experiment platform provides an effective way to combat exercises for learning and research of network attack and defense technology.
