- Abstract
MAC address spoofing has plagued LAN communication for a long time. Many attacks use it as a springboard to carry out subsequent attacks. The main reason for this kind of attack is the exposure of MAC address. If the source MAC address of the node can be hidden during frame forwarding, this kind of attack can be effectively prevented. This study proposes virtual MAC switching (VMS) as a solution to this problem. VMS uses multi-address hopping technology to make the MAC address of the frame change continuously in the forwarding process. Its unique address generation format makes other nodes unable to record or speculate the real MAC address of the node, so it cannot launch an attack. Experiments show that VMS is close to typical SDN switches in terms of delay, throughput, and overhead and has a higher security level.
