If I get your "static" right this already is the default
behaviour of "arp -s"ed entries:

----- man 8 arp --------------------------------------------
...
   -s hostname ether_addr
         Create an ARP entry for the host called hostname with
         the Ether- net address ether_addr. [ ... ] The entry
         will be permanent unless the word temp is given in the
         command. [ ... ]
...
----- man 8 arp --------------------------------------------
