- Updated test cases to reflect new column names (eve_MAC -> eveMac, eve_DateTime -> eveDateTime, etc.) across various test files. - Modified SQL table definitions in the database cleanup and migration tests to use camelCase naming conventions. - Implemented migration tests to ensure legacy column names are correctly renamed to camelCase equivalents. - Ensured that existing data is preserved during the migration process and that views referencing old column names are dropped before renaming. - Verified that the migration function is idempotent, allowing for safe re-execution without data loss.
Overview
This plugin reads from the ARP and NDP tables using the ip neigh command.
This differs from the ARPSCAN plugin because
- It does not send arp requests, it just reads the table
- It supports IPv6
- It sends an IPv6 multicast ping to solicit IPv6 neighbour discovery
Quick setup guide
To set up the plugin correctly, make sure to add in the plugin settings the name of the interfaces you want to scan. This plugin doesn't use the global SCAN_SUBNET setting, this is because by design it is not aware of subnets, it just looks at all the IPs reachable from an interface.
Usage
- Head to Settings > IP Neigh to adjust the settings
- Interfaces are extracted from the
SCAN_SUBNETSsetting (make sure you add interfaces in the prescribed format, e.g.192.168.1.0/24 --interface=eth1)
Notes
ARPSCANdoes a better job at discovering IPv4 devices because it explicitly sends arp requests- IPv6 devices will often have multiple addresses, but the ping answer will contain only one. This means that in general this plugin will not discover every address but only those who answer
