| hackdorte@20008 | 2 with their associated IP pairs. Alerts the system administrator via e-mail if |
| hackdorte@20008 | 3 any change happens, such as new station/activity, flip-flops, changed and |
| hackdorte@20008 | 4 re-used old addresses. |

| hackdorte@20008 | 8 (usually generated by snmpwalk(8)). |
