Apache2::Connection::Arp - use arp to get the mac address of remote clients
In your httpd.conf
PerlLoadModule Apache2::Connection::Arp PerlSetVar arp_binary '/usr/sbin/arp' PerlPostReadRequestHandler Apache2::Connection::Arp <Location /> SetHandler mod_perl PerlResponseHandler My::Handler </Location>
Meanwhile in a nearby mod_perl handler...
$remote_mac = $r->connection->pnotes('remote_mac');
This module grabs the mac address of the remote client and stashes it in the connection pnotes for later retrieval.
