You can connect windows machine somewhere in your network, if there is IP conflict windows will tell you :).

I don't know any methods how you can do it with RouterOS

If you have a CURRENT problem, do this:
  • Pick an available IP address in the range that has a suspect/known duplicate
  • Assign the above IP address to the interface on the MT that faces that network
  • Remove or disable the IP address on the device that is SUPPOSED to have that IP
  • Do: "/ip arp remove [find]" on the Mikrotik(it is not NECESSARY, but helpful sometimes)
  • Attempt to ping the IP that is duplicated. IT WON'T MATTER IF IT RESPONDS
  • If the IP is truly duplicated, you will find the MAC address of the offending device in the ARP table (even if it did not respond to the ping)
  • Restore the IP on the device that is supposed to own that address

Something like arpwatch would be more useful, IMO.

Yes. Arpwatch is better.

Tool > IP Scan
Search double entry in Address column:

Tool > Ping
Arping give you a double MAC in seq number:

You can do a testing via scripts and that way detect a conflict automatical.
My way is add a script into DHCP Server who check every new lease and alarm me via e-mail.
