christianandClaude Opus 5.5 d06798adf0 Find Dante PoE devices by MAC automatically instead of hard-coding ports.
Every 10 minutes the watchdog maps each Dante device: name and IP from
Companion, MAC from NA Ingest's ARP table, switch port and PoE state from
the Netgear switches in dante_switches, saved to dante-map.json. A DANTE hold
on a missing PoE-powered device power-cycles the port it is on now (found
live by MAC, or its last known port if it has aged out and nothing else is
there); never a port with more than 2 devices. Re-patching, adding or
renaming devices needs no config change. First live map: 19 devices, the 4
Studio B boxes on PoE.

"""Netgear AV (M4250-class) switches on the Dante network, over their CLI (telnet).
The switch login is read from NA Ingest's login keychain (service
"netgear-status-panel", the account is the username) and is never printed. Store
it once in Terminal on NA Ingest (it asks for the password twice):
security add-generic-password -s netgear-status-panel -a admin -w
A login saved in the Passwords app cannot be read by scripts. The keychain is only
unlocked inside the logged-in session, so run this from a LaunchAgent or a
Terminal there, not over SSH.
