Detect L2 L3 Attacks
Detection and response for on-path Layer 2 and Layer 3 attacks on a local network: ARP cache poisoning, LLMNR/NBT-NS poisoning with SMB/LDAP relay (Responder-style), rogue DHCP, and on-LAN DNS forgery (MITRE ATT&CK T1557, T1557.001, T1557.002, T1557.003). Signals come from switch syslog (Cisco Dynamic ARP Inspection and DHCP Snooping), Zeek dns.log and dhcp.log, arpwatch, Sysmon network and NTLM telemetry, and a canary-name tripwire. Gives the wire-level signal, log sources, a hypothesis-driven hunt, and DAI, DHCP-snooping, LLMNR-disable, and signing hardening. Use when investigating duplicate-IP or gateway-MAC flaps, triaging a DAI or DHCP-snooping violation, hunting for Responder or an on-path adversary, chasing unexplained NTLM relay logons, writing ARP/LLMNR/DNS poisoning detections, or hardening a LAN against adversary-in-the-middle.

What this skill does
Detect L2 L3 Attacks is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the identity-access sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/detect-l2-l3-attacks/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when investigating duplicate-IP or gateway-MAC flaps, triaging a DAI or DHCP-snooping violation, hunting for Responder or an on-path adversary, chasing unexplained NTLM relay logons, writing ARP/LLMNR/DNS poisoning detections, or hardening a LAN against adversary-in-the-middle.
Who uses this skill
The Detect L2 L3 Attacks Claude Code skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 211,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Detect L2 L3 Attacks skill?
Use Detect L2 L3 Attacks when your Claude Code task falls under the Security category — specifically in the identity access area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Detect L2 L3 Attacks" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/security/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Detect L2 L3 Attacks skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Detect L2 L3 Attacks is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Security category. Learn more at
