pretty trivial to write an expect script to reconfigure the gigaswitch
hourly based on a freshly-refreshed arp cache. as regards mac level
filtering on your router, i suppose that would depend on the overhead
to implement such filtering on your particular box. and i am not
enough of a cisco wizard to be able to answer that question for the
75xx series.

Hmmmm, a good idea - make your router to accept packets with src MAC
addresses of its BGP peers only, no?
