rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 10.71.1.80 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.71.1.255
        ether 00:50:fc:79:da:85
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
$ arp -n 10.71.1.80
? (10.71.1.80) at 00:50:fc:79:da:85 on rl0 permanent [ethernet]
