Ensures that ARP facts are returned only on EC2 hosts
ARP facts on large network might lead to inconstant values
as we are always using the first ARP entry from the output of the ARP
command

James,
So this change to the arp handling was merged in by yourself I think
(d5bec9713ba31746fb4de631ea5afb9a9453e3b2) but it doesn't seem right to me.
What are your thoughts on this? I was about to suggest traversing all the facts
(ie. arp_<interface> style) to work around Pieter's bug but it looks like these
were limited to EC2 only as well ... would you say this is in error? I can kind
of understand 'arp' as a single thing - but not the interface based ones ...
ken.

Bug #11196: EC2 facts do not get created when the arp table contains more than
1 entry (patch included)
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11196
Author: Pieter Lexis
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: library
Target version:
Keywords: ec2 arp
Branch:
Affected Facter version: 1.6.3
We have an EC2 instance with a QEMU vm on it (don't ask, we cried as well when
this was the only solution). This means that we have a bridge interface on the
EC2 instance and that the arp table contains more than 1 entry (on EC2 the only
entry is the gateway). The code in the arp module does not take this into
account. Than the ec2 code infers that this isn't an ec2 instance (and doesn't
create the ec2 facts), but it is. If you would be running a VPN service on EC2,
this bug could hit you as well (as you have more than 1 interface).
This patch fixes that.
