Package: guessnet
Severity: wishlist


The guessnet "peer" test uses ARP, so the peer must be within the
local subnet.  I'd like to test whether the connection is within a
particular firewall, without knowing or caring which subnet.  "ping"
can do this using ICMP queries.  My application is to use guessnet to
select a profile *after the network interface is configured* in order
to configure printing, mail, http proxy, etc.  Accordingly, I'd prefer
the syntax allow testing for a host by name, not just by IP number.
Something like this:

        work visible joe.company.com
        home peer 192.168.1.1 11:22:33:44:55:66 
        friend peer 192.168.1.1 44:55:66:11:22:33
