To be honest I never had the need to store static arp entries. So for me
the best place is /dev/null. Now if I really had to choose I would select
the interface's hostname.if file to add static entries. It is the place
where the interface gets its network which is the place arp entries hang
off of. It will all be configured together and immediatly usable.
