Can this be done today? DHCP is irrelevant to NAV. NAV only cares about the bridge tables of the switches, and these are collected every 15 minutes. The camlogger can be configured to watch the bridge tables for specific MAC addresses and issue a warning in its log file when they appear (no one has really used this feature much, and we were led to believe it would actually send an e-mail warning). So you have two choices, really: You can add a list of MAC adresses to /etc/nav/watchMacs.conf and create a process that monitors getBoksMacs.log and dispatches e-mail/sms when MAC warnings occur. Or, you can do the same with a process that monitors your DHCP logs (if possible). The latter will give you more immediate warnings than using NAV's method. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT _______________________________________________ nav-users mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.itea.ntnu.no/mailman/listinfo/nav-users
