Sauron network monitoring

[Tom Hargreaves]

So I wrote a websocket server that provides a realtime feed of hosts
coming and going from the local network. The feed also contains the
results of nmap scans for previously-unseen MAC addresses, including
OS detection and listening TCP ports.

The idea is to make plugging in random IoT devices less of a pain, by
being able to see at a glance what IP they were assigned.

I had vague ideas about some kind of fancy UI with little Pi logos and
Android logos and so on, but really, I have no idea how to make this
look good, or what kind of information would be desirable to put on
the big screen.

GIEV FEEDBAKC KTHXBYE

Brilliant idea, really glad to see you've gone as far as implementing it.

Also not sure how to make things look good, but having information accessible is a brilliant start :)

Tom.

Sounds fantastic! Is the code publicly available anywhere so we can have a go at writing a front end for it?

It's not like anything yet, hence this thread. That could certainly
be done, if there was a place where people could claim and name their
MAC addresses. Hadn't thought about it, but good idea.

Yep. I considered posting the repo in my first email but chickened
out thinking I should first make it easier to run/figure out how node
does dependencies/provide some sample messages.
