Package: arpwatch
Version: 2.1a13-2.1
Severity: wishlist
Android devices have a "feature", where the IP address of the cellular data
interface seems to bleed over to the WiFi network for the first packet when the
device switches from using the cellular data network to the local WiFi network
(e.g. when the device wakes up)
This has the fabulously undesirable feature of eliciting a "new station" email.
Very often.
What would be useful to address this problem was the ability to pass arpwatch a
pcap-style filter of MAC addresses to ignore.

Description:
arpwatch - Ethernet/FDDI station activity monitor
Closes: 334599 480835 551350 600886 862149
Changes:
arpwatch (2.1a15-4) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* improve the description of the -a flag in the arpwatch man page
* change the -N option to only stop reporting bogons as described in the man
page; Thanks to Gokdeniz Karadag (Closes: #480835)
- previosuly this option would cause arpwatch to process bogons similar to
packets beloinging to the local subnet
- processing all bogons as normal (what -N previously did) is still
possible by combining the -N flag with -a
- explain this change to users in NEWS
* do not automatically watch everything (0/0) when started on an
unconfigured network, instead leave it up to the admin to configure
- explain this change to users in NEWS
* explain how to disable the automatic update of the ethercode database in
README.Debian
* exit cleanly (with code 0) when arpwatch is terminated using SIGTERM
- adjust systemd service accordingly
* configure systemd to restart arpwatch automatically after unclean exit
* drop the -R option to restart arpwatch on errors; restarting on error is
now performed by systemd (Closes: #551350)
- explain this change to users in NEWS
* start arpwatch after the network is ready (important e.g. when using
bridges) also when the LSB init script is used (Closes: #862149)
* add -F option, allowing users to specify a custom pcap filter
(Closes: #600886)
* Add a PCAP_FILTER option to /etc/default/arpwatch which allows specifying
a pcap filter that includes spaces (also available per interface)
* Improve option parsing and description for the -z option (Closes: #334599)
* refresh patches
* prefix control files in debian/ with packagename
