arpwatch does something like that, keeps an eye on what mac addresses
are active using what IP on the local subnet, sends an alert when a
new mac address appearrs or some change occurs in the pairs of active
MAC/IP pairs.

Currently there is no integration between arpwatch and nagios.
arpwatch sends email alerts, maybe outputs to the log or console?

I don't think it is a good fit, since nagios assumes that all the
hosts it cares about are pre-defined in its config file.

There might be a web front end available for arpwatch I am unfamiliar
with, if so that sounds more like what you want.
