Hi,

Here is a rc.d script that I use on my own server, which provides two
functionalities:

 - Bind ARP pairs specified in rc.conf (*);
 - Set ARP logging options (+).

* Similar to routing settings, one need to set up some sort of "ARP
pairs" like this:

	static_arp_pairs="gw"
	arp_gw="172.16.1.1 00:1c:58:6a:7b:49"

+ By setting one or more of the following options to "NO" it would set
appropriate sysctl for arp logging settings to zero to disable logging:

	log_arp_permanent_modify
	log_arp_movements
	log_arp_wrong_iface

This script could be useful for those who use FreeBSD in a
uncontrollable network (i.e. your network administrator does not care
about viruses that attacks the network with fake ARP broadcasts).

I wonder whether this script would be useful for general consumption?
Other comments are also welcome :-)

Cheers,
