R3303-HP HSR6800 Routers Security Configuration Guide

• The static ARP entries changed from dynamic ARP entries have the same attributes as the manually
configured static ARP entries.
• Use the arp fixup command to change the existing dynamic ARP entries into static ARP entries. You
can use this command again to change the dynamic ARP entries learned later into static ARP
entries.
• The number of static ARP entries changed from dynamic ARP entries is restricted by the number of
static ARP entries that the device supports. As a result, the device might fail to change all dynamic
ARP entries into static ARP entries.
• To delete a specific static ARP entry changed from a dynamic one, use the undo arp ip-address
[ vpn-instance-name ] command. To delete all such static ARP entries, use the reset arp all or reset
arp static command.

Configuring ARP gateway protection
NOTE:
This feature is supported only when SAP modules operate in bridge mode.
Configure this feature on interfaces not connected with the gateway to prevent gateway spoofing attacks.
When such a port receives an ARP packet, it checks whether the sender IP address in the packet is
consistent with that of any protected gateway. If yes, it discards the packet. If not, it handles the packet
correctly.
Follow these guidelines when you configure ARP gateway protection:
• You can enable ARP gateway protection for up to eight gateways on a port.
• Commands arp filter source and arp filter binding cannot be both configured on a port.
• If ARP gateway protection works with ARP detection and ARP snooping, ARP gateway protection
applies first.
