        They aren't added by default unless you check the box under Services > DHCP Server for static ARP, and then they are pulled from the list of systems there.

        However, there was a bug on 1.2.x and static arp entries were not properly set on reboot. It should work on 2.0 though, but there is still no easy way to have just a single static arp entry without going to static arp only.

        You could always install the shellcmd package and put a shellcmd in that runs the command you want, then it would happen at bootup.

          Not "easy", but the answer I was looking fore.

          Thanks
