No matter how much I google I can’t get a definitive answer.

• Static ARP entries:

  Static ARP addresses prevent only simple attacks and do not scale on a
  large network, since the mapping has to be set for each pair of
  machines resulting in n^2-n ARP entries that have to be configured
  when n machines are present: On every machine there must be an ARP
  entry for every other machine on the network, which are n-1 ARP
  entries on each of the n machines. While static entries provide some
  security against spoofing if the operating system handles them
  correctly, they result in maintenance efforts as address mappings of
  all systems in the network have to be distributed.

• ARP detection software:

  This method is pretty useless. There are very few ARP detection
  programs out there, and the few that do exist are either free junk or
  over priced. In addition, to use these programs on a windows machine
  requires installing special drivers for your wireless cards.
  Recommendation: Don’t use.

So if neither anti-ARP software nor Static ARP entries work then how do you protect against ARP spoofing in a big network?
