 Thank you very much for your work.
 
 I have pulled the following files:
 
 usr.sbin/arp/arp.c,v 1.51
 usr.sbin/pppd/pppd/sys-bsd.c,v 1.66
 sys/net/route.c,v 1.127
 
 Results:
 | pppd[799]: found interface wm0 for proxy arp
 
 The correct interface is called vlan10 (with parent: wm0)
 - previously pppd found vlan10. Is this intentional?
 
 # arp 10.0.0.192
 arp: 10.0.0.192 (10.0.0.192) -- no entry
 
 # netstat -rn -f inet | grep 10.0.0.192
 10.0.0.192         10.0.0.1           UH          0       52      -  ppp0
 10.0.0.192         11:22:33:44:55:66  UHSp        0        0      -  wm0
 
 Still no good response to ARP who-has requests.
