Yes, it's designed to work on WAN only. However, you can manually
start choparp from /exec.php using a command line like the following:

/usr/local/sbin/choparp <bsdlanifname> auto 10.0.0.128/30 &

If it works, you can add it to config.xml as a <shellcmd>. Anyway,
I'll consider adding an interface selection box for proxy ARP.
