It's called intuitively. You can get it on freshmeat.net. I tried it and haven't had
success with it. Although it is a simple program. It sends fake arp's to figure out
what network it's on. Then configures your laptop based on the network you've
specified. You can also have it run a script.
Basically what it's doing is sending a an address resolution protocol request (arp)
saying, who has this ip address: x.x.x.x. A computer will answer saying, I do, my
hardware addess is xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx. However, it doesn't seem to work on my cable
modem. I was watching my network, while running intuitively and I saw it display:
who has 24.176.53.1 tell 0.0.0.0
who has 10.72.197.1 tell 0.0.0.0
The first ip's I know are on my local network ;). Intuitively is putting in the
0.0.0.0. However, intuitively reports it received no answer.
The other program is called divine. The guy who wrote intuitively says he used code
from divine.
