Did you try to look this up on the Squid site:
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/acl/

From their docs:
Code:
acl aclname arp      mac-address ... (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx notation)
	  # The arp ACL requires the special configure option --enable-arp-acl.
	  # Furthermore, the ARP ACL code is not portable to all operating systems.
	  # It works on Linux, Solaris, Windows, FreeBSD, and some
	  # other *BSD variants.
	  # [fast]
	  #
	  # NOTE: Squid can only determine the MAC address for clients that are on
	  # the same subnet. If the client is on a different subnet,
	  # then Squid cannot find out its MAC address.
And if you're using RHEL3, CALL THEM FOR SUPPORT since your paying for it. If you're not paying for RHEL, then don't use it.
