RELATIONSHIPS

oui

Returns the "oui" table entry matching this Node. You can then join on this relation and retrieve the Company name from the related table.

The JOIN is of type LEFT, in case the OUI table has not been populated.

node_ips

Returns the set of all "node_ip" entries which are associated together with this IP. That is, all the IP addresses hosted on the same interface (MAC address) as the current Node IP entry.

Note that the set will include the original Node IP object itself. If you wish to find the other IPs excluding this one, see the "ip_aliases" helper routine, below.

Remember you can pass a filter to this method to find only active or inactive nodes, but do take into account that both the "node" and "node_ip" tables include independent "active" fields.

nodes

Returns the set of "node" entries associated with this IP. That is, all the MAC addresses recorded which have ever hosted this IP Address.

Remember you can pass a filter to this method to find only active or inactive nodes, but do take into account that both the "node" and "node_ip" tables include independent "active" fields.

See also the "node_sightings" helper routine, below.

netbios

Returns the set of "node_nbt" entries associated with the MAC of this IP. That is, all the NetBIOS entries recorded which shared the same MAC with this IP Address.

ip_aliases( \%cond, \%attrs? )

Returns the set of other "node_ip" entries hosted on the same interface (MAC address) as the current Node IP, excluding the current IP itself.

Remember you can pass a filter to this method to find only active or inactive nodes, but do take into account that both the "node" and "node_ip" tables include independent "active" fields.

Results are ordered by time last seen.
Additional columns "time_first_stamp" and "time_last_stamp" provide preformatted timestamps of the "time_first" and "time_last" fields.

node_sightings( \%cond, \%attrs? )

Returns the set of "node" entries associated with this IP. That is, all the MAC addresses recorded which have ever hosted this IP Address.

Remember you can pass a filter to this method to find only active or inactive nodes, but do take into account that both the "node" and "node_ip" tables include independent "active" fields.

Results are ordered by time last seen.
Additional columns "time_first_stamp" and "time_last_stamp" provide preformatted timestamps of the "time_first" and "time_last" fields.
A JOIN is performed on the Device table and the Device DNS column prefetched.

ADDITIONAL COLUMNS

time_first_stamp

Formatted version of the "time_first" field, accurate to the minute.

The format is somewhat like ISO 8601 or RFC3339 but without the middle "T" between the date stamp and time stamp. That is:

 2012-02-06 12:49

time_last_stamp

Formatted version of the "time_last" field, accurate to the minute.

The format is somewhat like ISO 8601 or RFC3339 but without the middle "T" between the date stamp and time stamp. That is:

 2012-02-06 12:49

net_mac

Returns the "mac" column instantiated into a NetAddr::MAC object.
