I would like to know if there is a way in which I can create an interface in my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Desktop for my router.

My Goal: I want to tcpdump the ip address of the router which is 192.168.1.1.


new-eth1-for router     HWaddr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX  
                        inet addr:192.168.1.1  Bcast:192.168.1.255


eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:22:68:36:aa:05  
          inet addr:192.168.1.101  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0


lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0



As you can see in the table above
My computer : 192.168.1.101
My router : 192.168.1.1
Localhost : 127.0.0.1 (I need it for MySQL and PHP)

I just want to know if there is a way to work this "monitoring" thing. If anybody has another suggestion or solution, please do not hesitate, I just want to hear a hint.

Thank you
My regards

I have a question concerning Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Desktop - notifications (same notification as Rhythmbox application when playing music back and forth), technically if I'm not mistaken it should be called "freedesktop.Notifications.service". I just want to add notifications when one of my devices such as; laptop, phone, tablet connect to my local network. My configuration is as follows:

I have a wireless router. My router is connected directly to my desktop computer with a wire, I'm using LAN, the other devices connect through WI-FI.

By way of example, let's say :

My router's ip address : 192.168.1.1 & MAC address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

Me - as server - 192.168.1.101 & MAC address YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY

Smartphone - 192.168.1.102 & MAC address ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ

Laptop - 192.168.1.103 & MAC address KK:KK:KK:KK:KK:KK

  • What I want to do is simple; add those IP addresses along with their MAC addresses in the ARP and finally modify the notification file, whenever those devices connect to my local network I get notified. That's it.

P.S : I said "ARP". However, I'm not sure if it is suitable, I'm just supposing it has something to do with ARP config file, and notification file. Any suggestion using terminal or other application will be acceptable.

I will be much appreciated if someone can help me.
