resonable yes, practical, no.

The only way I know to prevent this is to hard code the MACs on the
switch.  This is time consuming to install and to maintain.

Barring that, please name ONE switch, or cite ONE credible reference
source, where arpspoofing is prevented at the switch by any means short
of harcoding the MACs.
