Description
Hello, Static ARP entries disappear whenever a link loss happens on LAN, exact same issue I faced on 2.0 beta as explained here, but it was fixed on that branch: http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/1628
Thanks!

I couldn't reproduce it on my test environment.
- Does it happen every time LAN link is lost?
- Is there any useful information on logs?
- Are you using recent snapshot?
- Could you share <dhcpd> and <interfaces> sections of config.xml?
BTW, the fix applied on 2.0 is still present on 2.1.
- it happens every time The switch connected to the LAN interface gets disconnected, ARP entries disappear and all LAN client fail to connect/ping pfsense and gain internet.
- nothing in logs, just arp entries get wiped out.
-Version: 2.1-BETA1 (amd64) built on Mon Apr 8 03:05:15 EDT 2013
The only fix I found for this is to login to pfsense through WAN and restart the DHCPD service.

Thanks!
meant to say they fail to gain access after the switch is turned back on.
Are there messages containing the strings 'hotplug' (ignorecase) at /var/log/system.log after switch is turned back on?
Yes, this is what I got:
Apr 11 15:09:49 pfsense php: : HOTPLUG: Configuring interface lan
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
Tested and its working perfect, Thank you so much!
