Denial of Service

Recommended Posts

in a windows system,you can take as many IPs for your system as you wish....

so if you take all IPs in a subnet before anyone else has connected to the network,what you think will be the impact on others(perhaps they will face a DoS) and at your own system...????

If there are no IP addresses available, no computer will be able to connect to the network. So essentially it will be a Denial of Service.

It also wouldn't stop people connecting normally to a network where the DCHP server has a MAC address to IP mapping as it will only hand out those IPs to the devices with those MAC addresses (Very useful for client devices that you move between a number of networks but would like to know what its IP will be on some or all of them).
