Does anyone have the code for gratuitous ARP?

Hi,
I tried implementing "Gratuitous ARP" using the same code for sending an ARP
request, but with the Target Hw Address as ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff and Target IP
same as Sender's IP and with Sender's Hw Address DIFFERENT from the correct
one( just to test if grat. ARP is working). But when I execute it, in other
hosts ARP cache, the entry for that IP Address itself is removed from their
ARP cache.
I don't understand why.

Can anyone send the code for executing grat ARP?

Thanks & regards,
Ulrich Prakash.
