Usage guidelines

This feature enables a device to log ARP events when ARP cannot resolve IP addresses correctly. The log information helps administrators locate and solve problems. The device can log the following ARP events:

· On a proxy ARP-disabled interface, the target IP address of a received ARP packet is not one of the following IP addresses:

¡ The IP address of the receiving interface.

¡ The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

· The sender IP address of a received ARP reply conflicts with one of the following IP addresses:

¡ The IP address of the receiving interface.

¡ The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

The device sends ARP log messages to the information center. You can use the info-center source command to specify the log output rules for the information center. For more information about information center, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.

The device can generate a large number of ARP logs. To conserve system resources, enable ARP logging only when you are auditing or troubleshooting ARP events.

Examples

# Enable ARP logging.

Usage guidelines

An IP unnumbered interface cannot learn the ARP entry of the peer device if the unnumbered interface and the peer device are on different subnets. To ensure communication between them, you can enable this feature on the IP unnumbered interface.

This feature takes effect only on an interface configured with the ip address unnumbered command. This interface is an unnumbered interface and borrows the IP address from another interface.

If an IP unnumbered interface is disabled from learning ARP entries for different subnets, existing ARP entries learned for different subnets are deleted after they age out.

Examples

# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to borrow the IP address of GigabitEthernet 1/0/2, and enable GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to learn ARP entries for different subnets.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

Parameters

max-number: Specifies the maximum number of dynamic ARP entries for an interface. The value range for this argument is 0 to 16384.

Usage guidelines

An interface can dynamically learn ARP entries. To prevent an interface from holding too many ARP entries, you can set the maximum number of dynamic ARP entries that the interface can learn. When the maximum number is reached, the interface stops learning ARP entries.

When the number argument is set to 0, the interface is disabled from learning dynamic ARP entries.

Examples

# Specify VLAN-interface 40 to learn a maximum of 10 dynamic ARP entries.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 40

Parameters

max-number: Specifies the maximum number of dynamic ARP entries for a device. The value range for this argument is 0 to 16384.

slot slot-number: Specifies an IRF member device by its member ID.

Usage guidelines

A device can dynamically learn ARP entries. To prevent a device from holding too many ARP entries, you can set the maximum number of dynamic ARP entries that the device can learn. When the maximum number is reached, the device stops learning ARP entries.

When the number argument is set to 0, the device is disabled from learning dynamic ARP entries.

Examples

# Set the ARP learning limit to 64 for slot 1.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies an IP address for the multiport ARP entry.

mac-address: Specifies a MAC address for the multiport ARP entry, in the format of H-H-H.

vlan-id: Specifies a VLAN for the multiport ARP entry, in the range of 1 to 4094. The specified VLAN must already exist.

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies an MPLS L3VPN instance to which the multiport ARP entry belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. The specified VPN instance must already exist. To specify a multiport ARP entry on the public network, do not specify this option.

description text: Specifies the description for the multiport ARP entry, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 255 characters.

Usage guidelines

You can configure a description for each multiport ARP entry for easy identification.

If the VLAN or the corresponding VLAN interface is deleted, the multiport ARP entry is also deleted.

To make the multiport ARP entry effective for packet forwarding, you must configure a multiport unicast MAC address entry to specify multiple output interfaces. The MAC address entry must have the same MAC address and VLAN ID as the multiport ARP entry. In addition, the IP address in the multiport ARP entry must reside on the same subnet as the VLAN interface of the specified VLAN.

Examples

# Configure a multiport ARP entry that contains IP address 202.38.10.2 and MAC address 00e0-fc01-0000 in VLAN 10.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies an IP address for the static ARP entry.

mac-address: Specifies a MAC address for the static ARP entry, in the format of H-H-H.

vlan-id: Specifies the ID of a VLAN to which the static ARP entry belongs. The value range is 1 to 4094.

interface-type interface-number : Specifies an interface by its type and number.

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies an MPLS L3VPN instance to which the static ARP entry belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. The VPN instance must already exist. To specify a static ARP entry on the public network, do not specify this option.

description text: Specifies the description for the static ARP entry, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 255 characters.

Usage guidelines

A static ARP entry is manually configured and maintained. It does not age out and cannot be overwritten by any dynamic ARP entry.

Static ARP entries can be short or long.

A resolved short static ARP entry becomes unresolved upon certain events, for example, when the resolved output interface goes down, or the corresponding VLAN or VLAN interface is deleted.

Long static ARP entries are effective or ineffective. Ineffective long static ARP entries cannot be used for packet forwarding. A long static ARP entry is ineffective when any of the following conditions exists:

· The IP address in the entry conflicts with a local IP address.

· No local interface has an IP address in the same subnet as the IP address in the ARP entry.

If you specify the vlan-id interface-type interface-number argument, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· The interface can be an Ethernet interface or an aggregate interface.

· The VLAN and VLAN interface must already exist. The specified Ethernet interface must belong to the specified VLAN.

· The IP address of the VLAN interface and the IP address specified by the ip-address argument must be on the same network.

· If a VLAN or VLAN interface is deleted, a long static ARP entry for the VLAN is deleted and a resolved short static ARP entry for the VLAN becomes unresolved.

You can configure a description for each static ARP entry for easy identification.

Examples

# Configure a long static ARP entry that contains IP address 202.38.10.2, MAC address 00e0-fc01-0000, and output interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 in VLAN 10.

Parameters

aging-time: Specifies the aging timer in minutes. The value range for this argument is 1 to 1440.

Usage guidelines

Each dynamic ARP entry in the ARP table has a limited lifetime, called an aging timer. The aging timer of a dynamic ARP entry is reset each time the dynamic ARP entry is updated. Dynamic ARP entries that are not updated before their aging timers expire are deleted from the ARP table.

Set the aging timer for dynamic ARP entries as needed. For example, when you configure proxy ARP, set a short aging time so that invalid dynamic ARP entries can be deleted in a timely manner.

Examples

# Set the aging timer for dynamic ARP entries to 10 minutes.

Parameters

interval interval: Specifies the sending interval in the range of 200 to 200000 milliseconds. The default value is 2000 milliseconds.

Usage guidelines

This feature takes effect on an interface only when the interface has an IP address and the data link layer state of the interface is up.

This feature can send gratuitous ARP requests only for a VRRP virtual IP address, or the sending interface's primary IP address or manually configured secondary IP address. The primary IP address can be configured manually or automatically, whereas the secondary IP address must be configured manually.

If you change the sending interval for gratuitous ARP packets, the configuration takes effect at the next sending interval.

The sending interval for gratuitous ARP packets might be much longer than the set interval when any of the following conditions exist:

· This feature is enabled on multiple interfaces.

· Each interface is configured with multiple secondary IP addresses.

· A small sending interval is configured in the preceding cases.

Examples

# Enable GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to send gratuitous ARP packets every 300 milliseconds.

Parameters

times: Specifies the times of retransmitting a gratuitous packet, in the range of 1 to 10.

interval seconds: Specifies the interval for retransmitting a gratuitous packet, in the range of 1 to 10 seconds.

Usage guidelines

The device sends a gratuitous ARP packet to inform other devices of its MAC address change. However, the other devices might fail to receive the packet because the device sends the gratuitous ARP packet once only by default. Use this command to configure gratuitous ARP retransmission parameters to ensure that the other devices can receive the packet.

After you execute this command, the device will retransmit a gratuitous ARP packet for its MAC address change at the specified interval for the specified times.

Parameters

ip-range start-ip-address to end-ip-address: Specifies the IP address range for which local proxy ARP is enabled. The start IP address must be lower than or equal to the end IP address.

Usage guidelines

Proxy ARP enables a device on a network to answer ARP requests for an IP address not on that network. With proxy ARP, hosts in different broadcast domains can communicate with each other as they do on the same network.

Proxy ARP includes common proxy ARP and local proxy ARP.

Common proxy ARP allows communication between hosts that connect to different Layer 3 interfaces and reside in different broadcast domains.

Local proxy ARP allows communication between hosts that connect to the same Layer 3 interface and reside in different broadcast domains.

If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Enable local proxy ARP on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
