Basic arpwatch configuration can be done using following steps:
- yum -y install arpwatch
- chkconfig --level 345 arpwatch on
- To configure mail edit the file /etc/sysconfig/arpwatch.
- OPTIONS="-u arpwatch -e saurabh@example.com -s 'root (Arpwatch)'"
- service arpwatch start
In case instead of mail if syslog is preferred than use following config lines instead
OPTIONS="-u arpwatch -e - -s 'root (Arpwatch)'"
Log activity can be monitored using: tail -f /etc/log/messages
