NAME
     Yersinia - A Framework for layer 2 attacks

SYNOPSIS
     yersinia  [-hVGIDd]  [-l logfile] [-c conffile] protocol [-M] [protocol_op-
     tions]

DESCRIPTION
     yersinia is a framework for performing layer 2 attacks. The following  pro-
     tocols  have  been  implemented  in Yersinia current version: Spanning Tree
     Protocol (STP), VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP), Hot Standby	Router	Protocol
     (HSRP),  Dynamic  Trunking  Protocol (DTP), IEEE 802.1Q, IEEE 802.1X, Cisco
     Discovery Protocol (CDP), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol  (DHCP),  In-
     ter-Switch Link Protocol (ISL) and MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS).

     Some  of  the attacks implemented will cause a DoS in a network, other will
     help to perform any other more advanced attack, or both. In addition,  some
     of  them  will be first released to the public since there isn't any public
     implementation.

     Yersinia will definitely help both pen-testers and  network  administrators
     in their daily tasks.

     Some  of  the  mentioned  attacks	are DoS attacks, so TAKE CARE about what
     you're doing because you can convert your network into an UNSTABLE one.

     A lot of examples are given at this page EXAMPLES section, showing  a  real
     and useful program execution.

OPTIONS

GTK GUI
     The GTK GUI (-G) is a GTK graphical interface with all of the yersinia pow-
     erful features and a professional 'look and feel'.

NCURSES GUI
     The  ncurses GUI (-I) is a ncurses (or curses) based console where the user
     can take advantage of yersinia powerful features.

     Press 'h' to display the Help Screen and enjoy your session :)

NETWORK DAEMON
     The Network Daemon (-D) is a telnet based server (ala Cisco mode) that lis-
     tens by default in port 12000/tcp waiting for incoming telnet connections.

     It supports a CLI similar to a Cisco device where the user (once  authenti-
     cated) can display different settings and can launch attacks without having
     yersinia running in her own machine (specially useful for Windows users).

EXAMPLES
     -	Send  a  Rapid	Spanning-Tree BPDU with port role designated, port state
     agreement, learning and port id 0x3000 to eth1:

     yersinia stp -attack 0 -version 2 -flags 5c -portid 3000 -interface eth1

     - Start a Spanning-Tree nonDoS root claiming attack in the  first	nonloop-
     back  interface  (keep  in mind that this kind of attack will use the first
     BPDU on the network interface to fill in the BPDU fields properly):

     yersinia stp -attack 4

     - Start a Spanning-Tree DoS attack sending TCN BPDUs in the eth0  interface
     with MAC address 66:66:66:66:66:66:

     yersinia stp -attack 3 -source 66:66:66:66:66:66
