    Hi all,

    I was thinking about the following scenario. I have one interface in my
    BSD router that serves a private network.

    Is it possible to disable ARP on that interface and make static ARP
    entries on router? I'm looking for a way to allow only certain MAC
    addresses to access via this interface. I do know it's only false
    security, but it would prevent people adding easily unauthorized
    computers. And since there are only about 10 comps in this particular
    network, maintaining static ARP entries would not be worksome.

    I would not like to get into bridging if this works.

    -Vesa, SysAdmin
