That's the discussion related to things like the "Strong ES" (end

rather than what ARP may do? 1122 doesn't say much about the
interfaces/MAC's that should be part of a given ARP reply. ARP seems to
be RFC 826 and probably others, and the algorithm described in 826
doesn't seem to be specific on the topic of interfaces - at least not to
my really brief read.

Yes, but if an interface will accept packets for a certain IP address,
and will send packets with that IP address, is there any reason it can't
ARP for that address?
