New Device Watch
Raises an alert when a device appears that is not on your allowlist. Matches by MAC, by OUI vendor prefix, or by device type, and can hold new devices for review during a learning period so an existing network does not alert on everything at once.
Runs on a timer
This plugin declares work FreeSDN will run for you, per organisation. Every schedule can be switched off from Plugins in the UI.
inventory_audit- every 30 min · on by default
Sweep the whole inventory for devices that are not on the allowlist. Catches what the event path cannot see: anything that appeared while the plugin was not running, or before it was installed.

Install
From inside FreeSDN, open Plugins › Marketplace, sync the catalogue, and install New Device Watch. The instance verifies the catalogue signature before ingest and the archive checksum before unpacking.
To install the archive directly instead:
curl -fSLO https://registry.freesdn.org/dl/new-device-watch-2.2.1.zip sha256sum new-device-watch-2.2.1.zip # expect: b17c300fef4f4031cdf2729ad01d6e831466742834f517f46531310580f44f34
Then upload the ZIP under Plugins › Install from file.
Plugins run in-process with the API. The loader applies import hygiene, ZIP-slip and ZIP-bomb guards, hash-pinned dependencies and per-action permission caps, but it is a cooperative trusted-author model and not a security sandbox. Install what you would be willing to run as application code.
