77+arpfetch \- obtain ethernet/ip address pairings via snmp
78+.SH SYNOPSIS
79+.na
80+arpfetch
81+.I host
82+.I cname
83+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
84+.B arpfetch
85+gets pairings between ip addresses and the ethernet address of the
86+corresponding network card. These pairings are retrieved from other
87+network entities, like routers, by the SNMP protocol using
88+.BR snmpwalk(1) .
89+Mostly, this program is an agent that
90+is used to get data for
91+.BR arpsnmp(8) .
92+This fetching of address mappings can be further automated by use of
93+.BR bihourly(8) .
94+.LP
95+Both command arguments must be present for proper operation.
96+The
97+.IR host
98+argument is the hostname of the network entity being queried and the
99+.IR cname
100+argument is the SNMP community name of the network entity.
101+.LP
102+The information is presented on
103+.IR stdout
104+in a format compatible with
105+.BR arpsnmp(8)
106+and
107+.BR arpwatch(8) .
108+.LP

176+.B bihourly
177+is a script that automates the operation of

181+on a series of hostnames and then
182+sending the results to
183+.B arpsnmp(8)
184+for analysis.
185+.LP
186+The result is a report of the current pairings
187+between ip addresses and the corresponding ethernet address
188+of the network hardware as reported by
189+.B snmpwalk(8).
190+Activity
191+is logged and noted changes are reported by email.
192+.LP
193+In its working directory
194+.B bihourly
195+expects a file named

198+and a file named
199+.IR cname
200+which holds the SNMP community name by which to query these hosts.

202+Contrary to the name,

204+does not run twice every hour. It
205+runs once each time it is invoked. For repeated operation

250+.SH SYNOPSIS

252+massagevendor
253+.I vendorfile
254+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
255+.B massagevendor
256+is a program that converts a text file containing ethernet vendor codes
257+into a format suitable for use by
258+.B arpwatch(8)
259+and
260+.B arpsnmp(8).
261+The input
262+.I vendorfile
263+is a master text file containing vendor codes. The output
264+is sent to
265+.I stdout.
266+Each line of the
267+.I vendorfile
268+is expected to have a six digit hexadecimal vendor code
269+followed by spaces followed by the name of the manufacturer.
270+.LP
271+All ethernet devices have a unique identifier which
272+includes a vendor code specifying the manufacturer of the
273+device. In normal operation
274+.B arpwatch(8)
275+and
276+.B arpsnmp(8)
277+use the file
278+.I ethercodes.dat
279+to report this vendor code.
280+.B massagevendor
281+is used to generate the
282+.I ethercodes.dat
283+file from text files containing these vendor codes.
