ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting and preventing the use of duplicate IP addresses is provided. The method involves sending ARP probes onto a network to determine whether an IP address that a device desires to employ is a duplicate IP address. The method further involves determining whether a probing entity is connected to an active network before identifying a potentially duplicate IP address as a non-duplicate IP address.
