- lookup_oui() now tries SQLite first (/opt/net_alerter/oui.db)
- Falls back to inline OUI_DICT if DB missing or query fails
- No network calls, local SQLite reads only
- Debug-level logging for failures (no output noise)
- Infrastructure IPs (gateway, self, broadcast) silently ignored in
on_arrival() and on_departure(); seeded at startup from 'ip route'
- 15-minute departure debounce: alert only fires if device is still
absent after 900s, eliminating ARP cache flush false positives
- 5-minute re-arrival suppression: ARRIVED alert skipped when device
returns within 5 min of a recorded departure (covers interface flap)
- DHCP renewal dedup: known device re-announcing within 30 min skips
ARRIVED alert
- Tests added for all four suppression paths (9 total, all passing)
- Replace broken OUI file lookup with inline dict of 200+ common vendors (works on Armbian)
- Fix hostname/IP duplication when reverse DNS fails (show IP once, not twice)
- Add format_arrival() and format_departure() helpers for consistent alert formatting
- Update on_arrival/on_departure to use new formatting functions
- Add comprehensive tests for hostname dedup and OUI lookup
- Removed get_local_subnets() and scan_subnet() — no longer needed
- Added read_arp_cache() to read kernel ARP table from /proc/net/arp
- Added fallback to 'ip neigh show' if /proc/net/arp unavailable
- Added lookup_oui() to query system /usr/share/hwdata/oui.txt for vendor names
- Removed subprocess nmap call and re import (no longer needed)
- run() now directly reads ARP cache instead of scanning subnets
- Zero active network traffic — purely passive monitoring
- Removed sudo requirement
Parse nmap vendor name from MAC Address line (filtering out 'Unknown').
Fall back to socket.gethostbyaddr for IPs nmap didn't resolve a hostname
for. Alert label is now: 'hostname (vendor)' | 'hostname' | 'vendor' |
'unknown', in that priority order.
