Looks like the following IP<->MAC data is probably derived from LAN ARP info:

:xeq nettool.net.sys "nameaddr;mappings;mapping;quit"
NETTOOL Version:      B06000A1

 Enter HELP HELP for an explanation of the help facility.

 Enter HELP OPERATION for guidance on NETTOOL use.

 Commands can be abbreviated, HELP keywords cannot.

 Menu-specific commands for the ROOT:

>>>nameaddr
>>>mappings
>>>mapping
    Subnet name filter:     @
    No link address filter
    Sorting by IP address
SUBNET: LOOP
================
127.0.0.1      Loopback

SUBNET: LAN1
================
192.168.0.1     Ethernet address :0050047F5055
192.168.0.2     Ethernet address :005004769BE8
192.168.0.5     Ethernet address :00108302E4AB
192.168.0.255   Ethernet address :FFFFFFFFFFFF
255.255.255.255 Ethernet address :FFFFFFFFFFFF
Total number of mappings = 6
>>>quit
:

My 3000 is 192.168.0.3 and does not appear above.

192.168.0.1 is my default gateway.
192.168.0.2 is my Win98 PC currently logged on via Reflection telnet.
192.168.0.5 is my NT PC currently logged on via Reflection telnet.
