RE: Anti netcut (was Re: [m0n0wall] m0n0wall 1.3b17)

I used to have all MAC address in ARP table the same 
I used wireshark I saw those ARP packets poisoning every thing 
Then I started using DHCP server and collect a table of all clients
connected to the m0n0wall.
After that I had arp.txt file uploaded in file manager 
And in config.xml a command to be executed in every startup to have arp.txt
as Static ARP table 
After that the logging changed 
It tells me that kernel : arp : MAC address attempts to modify permanent
entry for x.x.x.x 00:00:00:00:00:00 
It gives me the spoofer Mac address
Now I could look up the MAC in my DHCP static lease to know the Spoofer, but
the spoofer could change his MAC every minute :) and uses fake one so I
could not catch him unless I started unplugging cables which is near
impossible because of switching, it is like 20 switches in 20 different
building 
100 client network sharing 2Mb/s ADSL 1/4 Line each have 256/64 kb/s down/up
speed and using 1.3b13 working smoothly. 
Only ARP thing
After static ARP the server is protected, but clients are not.
That's all.

Sincere regards

Do all of your users connect with Ethernet cable, like this?:

	-----------
	| m0n0wall|
	-----------
	    |
	    |
	-----------
	| switch  |
	-----------
	 |    |   |
	/     |    \
	|     |	    |
      client  |	  client
	      |
	    client

You don't want users to get the default gateway, if they are not
allowed. Is that right?

Is that all you want to stop from happening?
