Copilot summary

Adds a new blog post explaining the rename and expansion of the old ARP Table feature into the unified Neighbor Table. The post covers why the change was made (IPv6/NDP was previously unsupported), how ARP and NDP differ, what the table columns represent, how to add static entries, and the administrator privilege requirement. Follows the same structure and tone as existing blog posts (Hosts File Editor, Firewall). Images are sourced from the existing documentation.
