Splashing is only done for clients which have a lease from this
node. All other traffic gets just true (picopeer alike). After
some minutes the information that "IPx/MAC must be shaped like..."
is applied in the hole network. If the client only has a lease but
is not "unsplashed" this information is also spread netwide.

A little bit ugly, but works and we have no memory or load problems
anymore on the gateway. (~1000 clients)
