hi,
i am interested to find out how freeBSD handles arp requests
especially when we have multiple IP addresses configured
per interface.

if i have the primary IP as x.x.x.x
and the secondary IP as y.y.y.y
and so on 
and there is an arp request for the primary IP
what does it respond back with.


and in the same scenario
when it does a arp request.
for an different ip address say.. a.b.c.d

what is the source address of the arp request.
is it always the primary IP address???
