Hawk is a web based utility for monitoring and comparing hosts on your
|
||
|
|
network with what is in DNS. Hosts that are answering pings but are not
|
||
|
|
in DNS may be unauthorized, and addresses in DNS which are not answering
|
||
|
|
may be able to be reclaimed. Hawk monitors all hosts on the networks
|
||
|
|
you specify and lets you view them via a web page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hawk consists of a backend written in Perl that monitors hosts by ICMP
|
||
|
|
pings and writes the status to a mysql database. The frontend is in
|
||
|
|
PHP and lets you select which network to view, and how to view it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This version has several enhancements to the original; including cleaner
|
||
|
|
Perl code, a user-definable string to designate unused addresses that
|
||
|
|
are in DNS, testing that the forward and reverse hostnames match, and
|
||
|
|
the daemon forks one process pre subnet.
