DHCP Flood C++ Source

This source code uses libtins to manipulate DHCP packets. Creates a DHCP Request of all IP pool range and broadcasts. This is a simple source code just for educational purposes.

How It Works

• It picks an IP address from the specified IP pool range
• Generates a random MAC
• Creates a DHCP Request packet with that IP and random MAC
• Broadcasts
• Waits for receiving ACK/NACK from DHCP Server
• Picks the next IP address from the ip range and repeats steps again.

The steps explained above, causes an starvation in DHCP IP assignment. So DHCP won't work any more.
