Sounds like a job for fwparp (I think...) I'll try this ....

I don't think NAT provides the same function at all.
NAT makes a device, which is actually on a "trusted" side of
the firewall, appear as if it was directly attached to the
segment on the "untrusted" side.
Eric, though, is talking about assigning an address that
"belongs" on the trusted side, to a device that is actually
on the untrusted side.
Proxy ARP is an interesting suggestion. If you give devices
and interfaces on the untrusted segment addresses and masks as
if they were on a supernet that includes both trusted and untrusted
subnets, then proxy ARP can be used by the firewall to snag
traffic that needs to get to the trusted side (and vice versa?).
This isn't quite as flexible as what Eric seems to be describing,
and the path taken by packets may be different, but it does solve
some of the same problems as the Sonicwall feature.
