convert arpwatch address database to ethers file format

Synopsis

arp2ethers

Description

arp2ethers converts file arp.dat in the current directory into ethers(5) format on stdout. Usually arp.dat is an ethernet/ip database file generated by arpwatch(8). The arpwatch(8) daemon will create different arp.dat depending on its configuration, i.e., the -f flag. All of them will be available at /var/lib/arpwatch.
