Start learning cybersecurity with CBT Nuggets. https://courses.cbt.gg/security

In this video, Keith Barker covers how to implement a DHCP starvation attack using Kali Linux and Yersinia. He begins by discussing the basics of DHCP, and specifically what happens when a DHCP client PC boots up on the network.

Keith kicks off this video by explaining the basics of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and how it can be seen on the network.

He’ll walk through how a DHCP server issues IP addresses and what happens between the server and client PC. Keith builds on this knowledge base by going into how to use Kali Linux and an application called Yersinia to initiate a DHCP starvation attack.

He’ll demonstrate hooking a Raspberry PI up to a Cisco switch by using an SSH session through a wireless connection. You’ll see each step of the process in detail, and by the end of the video, you’ll be able to replicate the process yourself.
