This counter is accumulated since the last reboot of the firewall.

What is cufwL2GlobalNumBadArpResponses?

This Counter64, in ARP Responses, counts malformed ARP responses received by the firewall while trying to resolve the MAC address for a destination IP in an incoming frame, accumulated since the last reboot. An admin uses it to detect ARP traffic on the network that's not well-formed, which could stem from misbehaving devices or attempted attacks. A rising count here alongside cufwL2GlobalNumSpoofedArpResps would warrant a closer look at the L2 segment for ARP-based mischief.

Examples
