They are not all on the same broadcast domain, as Cisco and my other
equipment provides a way for separating user to user traffic without
using vlans. That being said i still get all broadcasts to the pfSense,
as this is the only box all the users can talk to, so yes i do see 1000+
arp entires.

I guess my real goal is that anywhere a IP address can be used in
pfSense, a MAC address could be used also, but the MAC address would
simply be replaced with whatever it's IP is in the arp table. Of course
some things like the LAN IP, ect would not work this way.

MAC address filtering is of extremely limited utility. It is just as
trivial to spoof a MAC address as it is to spoof an IP address. The
problems you are trying to solve are already solved with captive portal
and a judicious use of DHCP. If you require further layers of
obtuseness, you can e
Yeah, I was hoping to get around that, by simply adding the MAC address
to a firewall rule, and pfSense would check the ARP table and use the
appropriate IP address automatically.
So i guess it's not true layer 2 filtering, but its close enough.

MAC to IP address tracking is handled by the ARP package. :-)
All joking aside, maybe you want to look at static DHCP assignments denying
unknown clients or the captive portal?

Are there any plans on adding this feature, or MAC to IP Address
tracking. I would be willing to submit an bounty if it's technically
possible.
This is very useful for hotels, airports, & wifi hot spots. Where you
want to block an PC that is using DHCP.
I've actually never seen this feature
pfSense does not do firewalling based on MAC address.
