+#### IP flipping
+
+With `ARPSCAN` scans some devices might flip IP addresses after each scan triggering false notifications. This is because some devices respond to broadcast calls and thus different IPs after scans are logged.
+
+See how to prevent IP flipping in the [ARPSCAN plugin guide](/front/plugins/arp_scan/README.md).
+
+Alternatively adjust your [notification settings](./NOTIFICATIONS.md) to prevent false positives by filtering out events or devices.
