  I don't see how this (which should help prevent local IP
address spoofing) helps with ARP.  ARP is only relevant 
within the local segment; the router only needs to come into
play to handle inter-segment traffic.

If you use a Cisco router, just use Cisco Express Forwarding 
(CEF). This 
has the router check the source address of incomming packets 
agasint the 
interface through which the packet entered the router.
