DHCP-Sniffer

This is a python based application to sniffer DHCP datagrams. What is the benefit when you use DHCP-Sniffer:

  • List assinged IPv4 address from any device in local network
  • List DHCP-option 55 of any device in local network for device identification (fingerprint)

Only support IPv4, and IPv6 not support yet...

Requirements

  • Python 3

Usage

Linux

  1. Usage
    • <-i interface> : specify sniffer interface. default is eth0.
    • <-d> : show more detail captured packet information including source/dest IP, source/dest MAC, and DHCP option 12, 50, 53, 54, 55. All DHCP broadcast are captured.
    $ python3 dhcp_sniffer.py -h
    usage: dhcp_sniffer.py [-h] [-i INTERFACE] [-d]
    
    optional arguments:
      -h, --help            show this help message and exit
      -i INTERFACE, --interface INTERFACE
