3 by Sven-Ola Tuecke <sven-ola-aet-gmx.de>

6 This plugin listens to all recevice UDP packets and maintains an
7 internal list of MAC addresses extracted from these. By hitchhiking
8 the set-route-function, the kernel ARP cache will be refreshed from
9 this list if a direct-neighbour host route is configured. Result:
10 no more ARP lookups if you use a larger routing chain - e.g. fetch
11 a web site 8 olsr-hops away does not show the typcial 8-nodes-need
