I remember Michael's patch using nmap to get the ip of the guest. I
tested the patch and found nmap taking too long to do a lookup and get
the guest ip. I will suggets two things here.
1. Modify nmap options to make nmap lookup really faster.
2. Provide an option to use a dictionary based(mac address to ip
mapping) lookup in config file and return mapped ip for a mac address.

I can send a patch for option 2 on top of Michael's patch. In the
simplest form it will generate a dictionary from a macaddress vs IP
address list(provided by the dhcp server in your lab/environment. you
can put this list in a file and use it). You need to specify macaddr
parameter in config file from this list. Looking the mac address the
parser will return the corresponding ip address from the dictionary
generated.

Please let me know if 2 sounds good. Also I think I missed to look at
Jason's patch?
