Summary

0000811: per node whitelisting of violations

Description

We were requested the following feature and it makes sense for me to implement it.

It should be possible to whitelist certain violations on a given node.

The following use case is what we should have in mind when implementing this:
- a policy on the network is to disallow all mobile devices for students
- the staff wants to use mobile devices connected to the wireless network

Right now, we whitelist the staff's mac in the trapping.whitelist parameter. This is not convenient because:
1- its done in global config which is not very cohesive since you are trying to enable a node
2- trapping.whitelist enables the user to avoid all types of violations. This is bad(tm). We would like to allow the user to use the mobile device but still trap him if he's spreading a worm around or scanning the network.

A per node whitelisting of violations is what we need. We should think a little bit more about it when we are there and establish a plan in this bug.
