Configuring a List of Internet ARP Entries

Configuring a List of Internet ARP Entries

Introduction

The list of address resolution protocol (ARP) entries maps Internet addresses to Ethernet hardware addresses for devices on the same network as the access server. You only need to enter the network hosts that do not support ARP.

Displaying the List of Internet ARP Entries

To display a list of ARP entries, use the SHOW/LIST/MONITOR INTERNET ARP ENTRY command.

Sample List of Internet ARP Entries

The following example shows a typical display list of ARP entries:

Local> SHOW INTERNET ARP ENTRY

Internet Address

Ethernet Address

Status

16.20.0.96AA-00-04-00-21-10

16.20.0.17308-00-2B-04-41-9B

16.20.0.96AA-00-04-00-3B-11

6.20.48.48

AA-00-05-08-3B-20

No Purge

Defining an ARP Entry

To define an ARP entry in the list of entries, use the DEFINE/SET/CHANGE INTERNET ARP ENTRY command with the ETHERNET parameter.

ARP Entry Definition Example

The following example shows how to enter a definition in the list of ARP entries:

Local> CHANGE INTERNET ARP ENTRY 195.1.1.72 ETHERNET

08-54-56-67-AC-89

This command maps the Internet address of 195.1.1.72 to the Ethernet hardware address 08-54-56-67-AC-89.
