## 🔍 Scan Methods
|
||||
The system continuously scans the network for, **New devices**, **New connections** (re-connections), **Disconnections**, **"Always Connected" devices down**, Devices **IP changes** and **Internet IP address changes**. Scanning methods are:
|
||||
- **Method 1: arp-scan**. The arp-scan system utility is used to search
|
||||
for devices on the network using arp frames.
|
||||
- **Method 2: Pi-hole**. This method is optional and complementary to
|
||||
method 1. If the Pi-hole DNS server is active, Pi.Alert examines its
|
||||
activity looking for active devices using DNS that have not been
|
||||
detected by method 1.
|
||||
- **Method 3. dnsmasq**. This method is optional and complementary to the
|
||||
previous methods. If the DHCP server dnsmasq is active, Pi.Alert
|
||||
examines the DHCP leases (addresses assigned) to find active devices
|
||||
that were not discovered by the other methods.
|
||||
The system continuously scans the network for, **New devices**, **New connections** (re-connections), **Disconnections**, **"Always Connected" devices down**, Devices **IP changes** and **Internet IP address changes**. Discovery & scan methods include:
|
||||

|
||||
- **Pi-hole - DB import**. The PiHole database is used as a source for events for devices
|
||||
- **Pi-hole - DHCP leases**. Import of devices from the PiHole dhcp.leases file
|
||||
- **Generic DHCP leases**. Import of devices from the generic dhcp.leases file
|
||||
- **UNIFI import**. Import of devices from the UNIFI controller
|
