Do you know the difference between routing and bridged setup? From
that output it looks like you're using bridged setup.

When it comes to arp issue, they usually say that :D
Some alternatives:
- try to find out why your gateway/switches can't find your dom0 arp
entry. This can be ... complicated.
- put static arp entry on your gateway. This works, but not really
recommended, plus your network guys may not allow such setup
- setup dom0 to periodically send outgoing packets. A simple ping to
gateway in crontab should be enough. This will ensure that network
devices will keep up to date entry of dom0's MAC address.
