    Yes, and that's why you need static MAC forwarding tables too.

    If you can then enforce the port->MAC->IP mappings you're pretty much
    bullet proof. I know there are switches that can handle the port->MAC
    part. An alternative for the MAC->IP part would be the TCP MD5 option
    or IPsec.
