Configuring proxy mode on the MAX
If you are bridging between two segments of the same IP network, you can use the Net Adrs
parameter in a Bridge Adrs profile to enable the MAX unit to respond to ARP requests while
bringing up the bridged connection.
If an ARP packet contains an IP address that matches the Net Adrs setting in a Bridge Adrs
profile, the unit responds to the ARP request with the Ethernet (physical) address specified in
the Bridge Adrs profile, and brings up the specified connection. In effect, the unit acts as a
proxy for the node that actually has that address.
