With this command, you're only creating an ARP entry, not a filter of some sort.

This behaviour isn't surprising: in fact, that's what the system is
supposed to do. Apart from the static entry you created, it
dynamically learns other MAC/IP combinations.

Although I admit you could devise an automated procedure to register
MAC addresses, you may want to look at authpf(8). With authpf, you can
dynamically limit access based upon credentials (a login over ssh)
that are less trivial to spoof (MAC addresses). For example, replacing
faulty NICs will save you another administrative step.

If you're relying on MAC addresses for security purposes, I recommend
you save yourself the trouble and go with another means of
authentication. MAC addresses are trivial to spoof (various Windows
drivers allow you to change the MAC address for a card).
