3.5 Arp Command (ARP Protocol)
Implementation of Address Resolution Protocol.
Syntax:
arp view [IP]
arp add IP MAC|auto proxy
arp del IP|all [proxy]
arp [-]freeze
arp [-]proxyall [$ACL]
Description:
ARP protocol serves for IP to MAC-address mapping and vice versa. For example
in Ethernet it allows to transform IP destination address into its 48-bit Ethernet
address for packet forwarding over LAN.
In common case ARP works automatically making address resolution as it is
necessary. But there are some cases when ARP tables should be corrected
manually and arp command solves this problem.
The command has several forms:
arp view [IP]
Displays ARP records for IP-address. Displays all ARP records if address is not
specified.
arp add IP MAC [proxy]
arp add IP auto proxy
Adds record into the ARP table. MAC-address mapped to IP-address. If keyword
proxy specified then the system will announce this information as response to the
requests from other stations, acting as proxy ARP server - even if this
IP-address is not system own address. In this case instead of MAC-address one
may specify auto keyword.
arp del IP | all [proxy]
Deletes the record for IP. Or all records in the system if keyword all specified. If
optional parameter proxy specified, then only proxy IP-addresses will be deleted.
