1 Arpwatch maintains a database of Ethernet MAC addresses seen on the network,
2 with their associated IP pairs. Alerts the system administrator via e-mail if
3 any change happens, such as new station/activity, flip-flops, changed and
4 re-used old addresses.
6 Arpsnmp keeps track for ethernet/ip address pairings. It syslogs activity and
7 reports certain changes via email. Arpsnmp reads information from a file
8 (usually generated by snmpwalk(8)).
