Speeding up dat address lookup is achieved by snooping all incoming ip
traffic. This especially increases the propability in bla setups that
a gateway into a common backbone network already has a fitting dat entry
to answer incoming ARP requests directly coming from the backbone
network thus further reducing ARP traffic in the mesh.
