No reason to worry. Linux only adds MAC addresses for machines it sends
out requests for or machines that it receives requests from. It doesn't
passively add addresses to its ARP cache.

Hi all...
I nave notice something weird in my box... When I start monitoring the
interfaces with IPTraf I can see several MAC addressess. When I type in
prompt "arp -n", not all the MACs addressess shown im IPTraf appears in
the output of this command.
Anyone knows why this happens? This is a reason for me to worry?
