Make honeyd read ethernet ranges from file #5

Closed DataSoft closed 11 years ago

DataSoft commented 12 years ago

The current method that honeyd uses to get a list of what hardware manufacturers belong to what MAC ranges, it just hardcodes the list into the source as a huge array. (in ethernet.c)

We should instead make honeyd read the nmap-mac-prefixes file just like Nova does.

DataSoft commented 12 years ago

This will: A) Make the list more complete B) Make the list editable by the user easily. C) Make the list easily updatable. (Not get too old and out of date)

The prefix file is located in /usr/share/nova/sharedFiles/nmap-mac-prefixes. It should really get copied somewhere from the Honeyd repository instead of the Nova repository, but for now just getting it to read that file is fine.
