Hi,

In a particular network scenario we have, swapping an ethernet link between
two FreeBSD machines using the same IP and a different MAC is proving to be
a problem.

We have discovered that in order to make this work we will need to enable
gratuitous ARP.  Does anyone know how to turn this feature on?


Cheers,
