Description-en: Fake ARP user space daemon
This ARP daemon replies to any ARP request for a set of IP addresses
with the hardware MAC address of one of the interfaces of the
server after determining that no other host in the network is claiming
that IP.
.
This enables a single host to claim all unassigned addresses on a
LAN for network monitoring or simulation purposes.
