• src-mac—Checks whether the sender MAC address in the message body is identical to the source
MAC address in the Ethernet header. If they are identical, the packet is forwarded. Otherwise, the
packet is discarded.
• dst-mac—Checks the target MAC address of ARP replies. If the target MAC address is all-zero,
all-one, or inconsistent with the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header, the packet is
considered invalid and discarded.
• ip—Checks the sender and target IP addresses of ARP replies, and the sender IP address of ARP
requests. All-zero, all-one, or multicast IP addresses are considered invalid and the corresponding
packets are discarded.

does not apply to ARP packets with multiport MAC as their destination MAC
addresses.
ARP restricted forwarding controls the forwarding of ARP packets that are received on untrusted
interfaces and have passed user validity check as follows:
• If the packets are ARP requests, they are forwarded through the trusted interface.
• If the packets are ARP replies, they are forwarded according to their destination MAC address. If no
match is found in the MAC address table, they are forwarded through the trusted interface.
Configured user validity check before you configure ARP restricted forwarding.
