	Victor, what about trying something similar to the example
in the ebtables docs:

ebtables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -i eth0 -j dnat --to-destination 54:44:33:22:11:00

	iparp can not see these packets (layer 2) but for other
purposes probes can be originated with unicast dst MAC in this way:

ip arp add table output to 1.2.3.4 lldst 00:11:22:33:44:55

>  : Do de ip stack understand this "unicast" arp request?

	Yes but at MAC level the ARP code cares only for
unicast/broadcast, no matter the actual dst MAC of the received
packet.
