       [src_hw_addr [dest_hw_addr]]]

DESCRIPTION

       send_arp  This  program  sends out one ARP packet with source/target IP
       and Ethernet hardware addresses suuplied by the user.  It compiles  and
       works on Linux and will probably work on any Unix that has SOCK_PACKET.

       The idea behind this program is a proof of a concept, nothing more.  It
       comes  as is, no warranty.  However, you’re allowed to use it under one
       condition: you must use your brain simultaneously.  If  this  condition
       is   not  met,  you  shall  forget  about  this  program  and  go  RTFM
       immediately.
