Adding/Modifying Enhanced Proxy ARP Subnets

Use the Enhanced Proxy ARP Add/Modify Subnet window for help on how to add, modify or delete enhanced proxy ARP subnets.

Adding Enhanced Proxy ARP  Subnets

Use this procedure to prevent enhanced proxy ARP routing for destinations in certain subnets.  For example, a LAN configured with subnets A, B, and C has a router in subnet A that does not have an address in subnet C.  When an ARP request is sent by a host in subnet B to a host in subnet C, the router will initiate an ARP request destined to the host in subnet C.  Adding enhanced proxy ARP subnets can be accomplished on VLAN interfaces only. 

Procedure:

Step Action
1 Enter an interface number in the Interface Number field.
2 Enter a subnet address in the Subnet Address field.
3 Enter a subnet mask in the Subnet Mask field.
4 Click Apply.  The subnet is added to the router's configuration.

 

Modifying Enhanced Proxy ARP  Subnets

Procedure:

Step Action
1 Enter a new interface number, if appropriate, in the Interface Number field.
2 Enter a new subnet address, if appropriate, in the Subnet Address field.
3 Enter a new subnet mask, if appropriate, in the Subnet Mask field.
4 Click Apply.  The subnet is modified in the router's configuration.

 

Deleting  Enhanced Proxy ARP Subnets

Procedure:

Step Action
1 Enter 0.0.0.0 in the Subnet Address field.
2 Click Apply.  The subnet is deleted from the router's configuration.
