8.1.2.2 ip proxy-arp
This command enables proxy ARP on a router interface. Without proxy ARP, a device only responds to
an ARP request if the target IP address is an address configured on the interface where the ARP request
arrived. With proxy ARP, the device may also respond if the target IP address is reachable. The device
only responds if all next hops in its route to the destination are through interfaces other than the interface
that received the ARP request.
Syntax
ip proxy-arp
no ip proxy-arp
