 I have only tested ports/net-mgmt/zabbix2-server (actually our zabbix =
 production server)
 
 Zabbix works perfectly, nothing wrong in that port. The only issue is =
 Zabbix icmpping simple check that relies on fping. And because fping =
 gives inconsistant results (as you describe it has to do with arp =
 cache), Zabbix icmpping simple check is not reliable to check host =
 availability.
