# Pi.Alert
|
|
<!--- --------------------------------------------------------------------- --->
|
|
|
|
WIFI / LAN intruder detector.
|
|
|
|
Scan the devices connected to your WIFI / LAN and alert you the connection of
|
|
unknown devices. It also warns the disconnection of "always connected" devices.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
*(Apologies for my English and my limited knowledge of Python, php and
|
|
JavaScript)*
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
The system continuously scans the network for:
|
|
- New devices
|
|
- New connections (re-connections)
|
|
- Disconnections
|
|
- "Always Connected" devices down
|
|
- Devices IP changes
|
|
- Internet IP address changes
|
|
|
|
## Scan Methods
|
|
Up to three scanning methods are used:
|
|
- **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.
|
|
|
|
## Components
|
|
The system consists of two parts:
|
|
|
|
### Back
|
|
In charge of:
|
|
- Scan the network searching connected devices using the scanning methods
|
|
described
|
|
- Store the information in the DB
|
|
- Report the changes detected by e-mail
|
|
|
|
| ![Report 1][report1] | ![Report 2][report2] |
|
|
| -------------------- | -------------------- |
|
|
|
|
### Front
|
|
A web frontal that allows:
|
|
- Manage the devices inventory and the characteristics
|
|
- Display in a visual way all the information collected by the back
|
|
- Sessions
|
|
- Connected devices
|
|
- Favorites
|
|
- Events
|
|
- Presence
|
|
- Concurrent devices
|
|
- Down alerts
|
|
- IP's
|
|
- ...
