Yes.  You can add alias addresses for all of the IPs in a network on to
the same machine.  Easiest way to do that is with something like the
following in /etc/rc.conf:

ipv4_addrs_em0="192.168.123.1-254/24"

Note: be careful to avoid adding the network and the broadcast addresses
as aliases or you'll get weird effects.

Note 2: if all you want to do is scan passing traffic but not respond
to it, then putting the interface into promiscuous mode will do what
you want.  This happens automatically when using programs like tcpdump
or wireshark: otherwise, you can use ifconfig to change manually.  To
see all the traffic on a wired network, you'll need to have a
manageable switch, and set the network port your machine is connected
to into monitor mode.  Wireless networks don't have this restriction.

Cheers,

Matthew

I'm sure there are several ways, but you could always setup NAT so your box 
thinks it owns all the IP's and will reply to ARPs for every address.

As the other responses suggest, your question is not really clear. I 
guess what you want is to make your host unreachable from the internet. 
You set up firewall rules that block all incoming packets, FreeBSD 
supports a number of different ones, ipfw, ipfilter and packetfilter - 
se the handbook.

Note, once you have a connection - regardless of firewall - you can be 
discovered with arping provided that the pinging host is on the same 
physical network as you. Normally this is not a problem, and doesn't 
really matter if they can't connect anyway.

Cheers, Erik

The only way is to stop using 205.206.1.11 to connect to anything.
Really, you can't "hide".. else nothing will work.
The only way is to not use the Internet.
i.e. you don't want to.

Unless you go via a proxy not easily but this is more of a general 
question than VPS

Depends, is it a private ip address? IP addresses, if public, can be
"seen" by everyone on the internet, you may be able to limit the type
of packets and responses it gives, but other than that, no clue.
