Hi Niall, Enno and list, I've just taken a bit of a look at these, and this is what I think: Enno Rey <erey at ernw.de> writes: > On Fri, May 16, 2014 at 03:18:14PM +0200, Niall O'Reilly wrote: >> >> The problem it addresses seems to be parallel to the one which has my >> main attention at the moment.

However, the way they work it isn't perfectly reliable: They all work by attaching a listening device to the subnet, which is generally fine, but may be insufficient. An orthogonal approach might actually be to use information from the various routers in the network. These may not show who is doing things within the subnet only, but as soon as they send anything through a router, they can be tracked there. > Crossposting to IPv6hackers mailing list as guys over there might have > other/better suggestions. apologies in advance for this! No reason to apologize, it makes perfect sense.
