Implements Redmine #16070 (https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16070)

ANDwatch is a modern replacement for arpwatch. When contrasted with arpwatch, ANDwatch offers the following enhancements:

  • Support for IPv6.
  • Support for all IEEE MAC Address Blocks:
    • 24 bit Large MAC Address Block MA-L.
    • 28 bit Medium MAC Address Block MA-M (new).
    • 36 bit Small MAC Address Block MA-S (new).
  • Identification of private (locally administered) hardware addresses.
  • Does not require sendmail as a hardcoded notification mechanism.

LGTM - rebase/squash all the commits. The PR merge will need to coincide with a change to add net-mgmt/%%PRODUCT_NAME%%-pkg-ANDwatch and net-mgmt/andwatch to https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/tools/conf/pfPorts/poudriere_bulk. A test build can be done afterwards.

@dennypage dennypage force-pushed the andwatch branch 2 times, most recently from d5fc892 to fc4aff2 Compare August 26, 2025 20:44

Okay, I think I'm done playing Roulette with git, and have completed the squash. :)

The PR merge will need to coincide with a change to add net-mgmt/%%PRODUCT_NAME%%-pkg-ANDwatch and net-mgmt/andwatch to https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/tools/conf/pfPorts/poudriere_bulk.

I assume that you are not asking me to make the change to poudiere. Please let me know if that is incorrect.
