There were a couple options in the 1.2+ timeframe: 1.) The original non-threadsafe mechanism 2.) The pre-1.3 mechanism, which used tcpip_input, and routed all IP and ARP traffic through the tcpip mailbox ( essentially doing what I think you proposed ). There was/is a handler for ARP inside the tcpip thread main loop.
