NAME

       arp2ethers - convert arpwatch address database to ethers file format

SYNOPSIS

       arp2ethers

DESCRIPTION

       arp2ethers converts file arp.dat in the current directory into ethers(5) format on stdout.  Usually arp.dat is an ethernet/ip database file
       generated by arpwatch(8).  The arpwatch daemon in Debian will create different arp.dat depending on its configuration. All of them will	be
       available at /var/lib/arpwatch/.

FILES

       /var/lib/arpwatch - default directory for arp.dat
       arp.dat - ethernet/ip address database

SEE ALSO

NAME

       arpsnmp - keep track of ethernet/ip address pairings

SYNOPSIS

       arpsnmp [ -d ] [ -f datafile ] [ -e username ] [ -s username ] file [ ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       Arpsnmp keeps track for ethernet/ip address pairings. It syslogs activity and reports certain changes via email.  Arpsnmp reads information
       from a file (usually generated by snmpwalk(8)).

       The -d flag is used enable debugging. This also inhibits mailing the reports.  Instead, they are sent to stderr.

       The -f flag is used to set the ethernet/ip address database filename.  The default is arp.dat.

       Note that an empty arp.dat file must be created before the first time you run arpsnmp.

       If the -e flag is used, arpsnmp sends e-mail messages to username rather than the default (root).  If a single `-' character is	given  for
       the  username, sending of e-mail is suppressed, but logging via syslog is still done as usual.  (This can be useful during initial runs, to
       collect data without being flooded with messages about new stations.)

       If the -s flag is used, arpsnmp sends e-mail messages with username as the return address, rather than the default (root).

REPORT MESSAGES

       (See the arpwatch(1) man page for details on the report messages generated by arpsnmp(1).)

FILES

       /usr/operator/arpwatch - default directory
       arp.dat - ethernet/ip address database
       ethercodes.dat - vendor ethernet block list

       Attempts are made to suppress DECnet flip flops but they aren't always successful.
