Is disabling arp scan supported?

[meeowgler]

If arp scan is disabled (to use an nmap only scan, for instance), when you select a device network node, the name that is populated in the "Node (MAC)" field is "(name not found)". When re-enabling arp scan, the "Node (MAC)" field shows correctly.

Should we always keep arp scan enabled?

Thanks!

Hi @meeowgler ,

arp-scan shouldn't be required. Can you post some screenshots to illustrate the issue?

I set ARPSCAN_RUN to disabled and I can still see proper names:

Can you try refreshing the cache?

Hi @meeowgler - in the end it was a bug - I couldn't reproduce it the first time because I re-enabled ARPSCAN right away. You can check this issue for details: #726
