Hello, I have a question about ARP based security. With a packet firewall enabled and verbose settings, I get a million of the following messages Mar 2 10:59:24 server /kernel: arplookup xx.xx.xx.xx failed: host is not on local network I know that the host is not on the local network, that is not a problem because it isn't... But, what I do not understand is why is this happening? Is this a security risk? What if anything can be done to fix it? What causes it? Any help would be really appreciated! Thanks...
