A tool to monitor your network ARP activity. Panel Anthrax tool keeps eye on every ARP messages hitting your network interfaces and match each MAC address with the entries of existing sqlite3 database. Panel Anthrax interface will show you only mac address of the device and it’s vendor, if it does not exist in the database information. And any time you can update the information of that mac address and give it a human readable name where you can identify uniquely that device later.
Why?
I was using arp monitoring tools to keep an eye on my network’s ARP activity but. Those tools had huge logs and lack of device type identification based on MAC. So I designed my own version of UI as a solution using arp monitoring tools as backend.
