I see.  I have corrected arp_ prefixes to static_arp_ prefixes.  Note
that "arp_args" are not changed because they are intermediate variables
that are intended as "arp(1) arguments".  I have marked these as local.

I think IPv6 would need to use "ndp" instead (cross referenced from
arp(8)) but am not sure.  Because the script rely on space or tab as
separator I think it would just work after a simple s/arp/ndp/g for ndp
but I don't have a local production IPv6 network for the test...

Cheers,
