If Wireshark flags an ARP as duplicate-address-detected then that means
Wireshark has seen 2 or more hosts saying they have the same IP address
(or, more specifically, 2 or more MAC addresses advertising the same IP
address) - obviously that's (usually) a bad thing.


Hi Jeff,
Thank you.
Just wondering, what it could be the bad thing? Because I'm also getting a
lot of duplicate-address-detected.
TIA,
