HI Rohit I'm not sure if this is a question appropriate to the nox-dev list. I believe the list is intended for questions regarding developing over NOX.
You may want to lookup a previous work called Plug-n-serve, followed by an improved system called Aster*x, that builds a server farm with all hosts having same alias IP address, while having different MAC address. To achieve what you are suggesting, you might have to rewrite MAC addresses at the gateway point instead of trying to use ARP revocation to change the MAC address for each request. Srini.
