NAME

       arp2ethers - convert arpwatch address database to ethers file format

SYNOPSIS

       arp2ethers [ arp.dat file ]

DESCRIPTION

       arp2ethers  converts  the  file  /var/lib/arpwatch/arp.dat  (or  the file specified on the
       command line) into ethers(5) format on stdout.  Usually arp.dat is an ethernet/ip database
       file  generated  by  arpwatch(8).   The  arpwatch  daemon  in Debian will create different
       arp.dat  depending  on  its  configuration.   All   of   them   will   be   available   at
       /var/lib/arpwatch/.

FILES

       /var/lib/arpwatch - default directory for arp.dat
       arp.dat - ethernet/ip address database
