You can bind multiple IP addresses to the same MAC address. You cannot bind
multiple MAC addresses to the same IP address.
However, you can set the IP address to 0.0.0.0 for multiple MAC addresses. This
means that all packets with these MAC addresses are matched with the IP/MAC
binding list.
Similarly, you can set the MAC address to 00:00:00:00:00:00 for multiple IP
addresses. This means that all packets with these IP addresses are matched with the
IP/MAC binding list.
