Can you not use arptables to prevent the above happening?


Not really. ARP happens in layer 3, while the flooding of the switch or bridge happens on layer 2. I think you could filter with ebtables though.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not familiar with arptables and ebtables).



Thomas.
