Visualization and animation have been used to aid teaching in many areas of education. In this paper, we present animated visual software that demonstrates network attacks on Local Area Networks. This tool is targeted to assist instructors who teach college level network security and computer networks. We did extensive survey on various attack methods and studied the technical details of attack techniques. The tool accurately and realistically shows attacks such as ARP Poisoning, Port Stealing and MAC Flooding. We integrated features such as high degree user interaction, play and pause, tooltips and quizzes. The tool is implemented using Macromedia Flash 8 because its player is widely used in the web and its versatility in creating interactive animations. We demonstrated this tool to students. Compared to students of previous semester who are taught without this tool, they were more motivated and did better on quiz questions. |
