Abstract:
A system manager sets a port connected to a specific device (for example, a router device) among a plurality of ports of a switch device as a reliable port. If a packet is received in the reliable port, the switch device manages an IP address and a MAC address of the router device by a reliable port information table. When a packet is received from a port not set as the reliable port, the switch device refers to the reliable port information table. At this time, when the received packet is an address resolution packet having impersonated a router device, the switch device discards the packet without transmitting the packet, thereby preventing a cyber attack on a terminal.
Abstract:
In a case where reconnection of a cable is performed by replacement of a network device, an erroneous connection detection unit of a network management server compares opposing identification information of current value information and opposing identification information of expected value information, compares group identification information before the replacement of the network device and group identification information after the replacement of the network device, with reference to port configuration information, and determines the presence or absence of erroneous connection of the cable, on the basis of a result of the comparison.
