I have RoadRunner, and my log is filled with entries like these:
Nov 2 15:19:59 greenmachine /bsd: arp info overwritten for 70.112.240.1 by 00:04:9b:ef:7c:70 on dc0
Nov 2 15:19:59 greenmachine /bsd: arp info overwritten for 70.112.240.1 by 00:04:9b:ef:7c:54 on dc0
ARP maps MAC addresses to IP numbers. I never did figure out exactly
what this means, but apparently there are two network interfaces
thinking that they are 70.112.240.1. I manually configured arp and
locked it on to one of these because I din't like the log clutter,
and I forgot exactly what happened, but I think it just generated
other messages that cluttered the log. As far as I can tell, it's
a harmless annoyance.
