/*
=c
ARPTable

=s Wifi 

Tracks IP -> Ethernet mappings for other elements.

=d 
Tracks ethernet to ip mappings for individual elements. This element
does not process packets.

=h mappings read-only
Returns a String with "EtherAddress IP" mappings on each line
=h insert write-only
Insert a "EtherAddress IP" pair into the table
