subnet mask of the receiving interface is not in the subnet 10.10.10.5/24, VLAN-interface 10 cannot
process the ARP packet.
With this feature enabled, the device calculates the subnet address by using the default mask of the class
A network where 10.10.10.5/24 resides. Because 10.10.10.5/24 is on the same class A network as
10.11.11.1/8, VLAN-interface 10 can learn the sender IP and MAC addresses in the request.
To enable natural mask support for ARP requests:

Static ARP entry configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 44, hosts are connected to LB, which is connected to the router through interface
GigabitEthernet 0/1 in VLAN 10. The IP and MAC addresses of the router are 192.168.1.1/24 and
00e0-fc01-0000 respectively.
To prevent malicious users from attacking LB and enhance security for communications between the
router and LB, configure a static ARP entry for the router on LB.
