Hi Martin,

Thank you for your update.

Regards
Gustav

I don't think so. However, the dhcp plugin is often used along with the
farp plugin to fake ARP responses in a local LAN. There was a discussion
about porting the farp plugin to BSD at [1] and [2], not sure what the
state of that port is, though.

Yes.

Martin
