The above Syntax is not yet valid (as of net-tools-1.32-alpha) it will work
with 1.33-alpha:
arp -i eth0 -s 157.158.29.94 00:C0:DF:49:9F:66 pub
: : PS: Yes the device guessing needs some improvement...
:
: Device guessing for proxy entries works when
: you have only one arpable interface. If you have more than one such
: interface, kernel cannot read your thoughts :-), so that
: you must specify device explicitly.
The Kernel can compare the Hardware addresses if no interface is specified
and set the entry for the device which matches the HW-address, since this
will be the right interface in 98%.
