arp scan

hello

I need help about understanding arp scan results.

Code:
[perhos@localhost ~]$ arp-scan --interface=eth0 --localnet
Interface: eth0, datalink type: EN10MB (Ethernet)
Starting arp-scan 1.6 with 256 hosts (http://www.nta-monitor.com/tools/arp-scan/)
192.168.2.1     00:16:xf:06:13:d0       Arcadyan Technology Corporation

1 packets received by filter, 0 packets dropped by kernel
Ending arp-scan 1.6: 256 hosts scanned in 1.305 seconds (196.17 hosts/sec).  1 responded
Is this result bad or good ? How can i find which computer connects to me and its information in details?

The result is neither good nor bad. It shows that there's one other device on the LAN connected to eth0 on your machine. You can use the arp-fingerprint tool to extract more information about the other device. See the arp-scan User Guide.
