net.link.ether.inet.proxyall

[Jon Otterholm]

Hi.

Has anyone information about the sysctl "net.link.ether.inet.proxyall" ?
Is this a global ARP-Proxy? Does it apply on a bridge or if_bridge?

It's briefly mentioned in the arp(4) manpage. When enabled,
it will ARP-proxy all IPs on the local net who have routes
pointing somewhere else, e.g. thru P2P links, well, any
other interface actually.
