VLAN hopping is an advanced attack technique described in CEH materials, used to bypass VLAN segmentation by exploiting switch misconfigurations or vulnerabilities. Two primary methods—switch spoofing and double tagging—allow attackers to gain access to traffic from VLANs they are not authorized to view. This technique enables the capture of inter-VLAN traffic without requiring administrative privileges or triggering security tools. Port mirroring requires administrative control and is not an attack method. Rogue DHCP servers target IP assignment, not VLAN segmentation. ARP poisoning is effective only within a single broadcast domain and cannot traverse VLAN boundaries. Because the objective is to silently access multiple VLANs despite enforced segmentation, VLAN hopping is the correct technique as per CEH’s network perimeter attack methodology.
