One aspect of my pending migration to Ubuntu Linux on my primary laptop has been the opportunity to explore “non-traditional” uses for Linux containers.

Since 2000, secure networks have been built by segmenting traffic at the switch port level from server to server, radically limiting east-west traffic. Today, most opens systems, servers, routers, and switches ship with all the security controls open. Polices follow applications, databases, and web servers.

So, you fire up your favorite flavor of Linux, throw ARPwatch and an SMTP server on it, edit a couple of config files, and you’re off to the races. There is one downside to ARPwatch that is not a fault of the application but simply how networking “works”: You’ll need to have a network adapter on each of the subnets you want to monitor.
