I would like to see your script.

Looking for a way to monitor a small banking network and generate
an alert when an unused IP address is observed. The current IP's are
not consecutive.

Example: we have 26 static IP addresses assigned to workstations and
servers. If a 27th (or greater) address appears on the wire, generate
an alert. (Note: not very interested in watching MAC addresses as some
of the IP's are behind another layer-3 device.)

Thoughts?

I use p0f hooked into a perl script which generates a list of the
active hosts for the day. It also does a DNS lookup, and anything
without valid rDNS gets mailed to me.

The code is actually pretty trivial, but I'm happy to share it if
anyone cares.

cheers,
 Jamie
