Chapter 20 Configuring Dynamic ARP Inspection
Configuring Dynamic ARP Inspection
Configuring Dynamic ARP Inspection in DHCP Environments
This procedure shows how to configure dynamic ARP inspection when two switches support this feature.
Host 1 is connected to Switch A, and Host 2 is connected to Switch B as shown in
Figure 20-2 on
page 20-3. Both switches are running dynamic ARP inspection on VLAN 1 where the hosts are located.
A DHCP server is connected to Switch A. Both hosts acquire their IP addresses from the same DHCP
server. Therefore, Switch A has the bindings for Host 1 and Host 2, and Switch B has the binding for
Host
2.
Note Dynamic ARP inspection depends on the entries in the DHCP snooping binding database to verify
IP-to-MAC address bindings in incoming ARP requests and ARP responses. Make sure to enable DHCP
snooping to permit ARP packets that have dynamically assigned IP addresses. For configuration
information, see Chapter 19, “Configuring DHCP Features and IP Source Guard.
For information on how to configure dynamic ARP inspection when only one switch supports the
feature, see the
“Configuring ARP ACLs for Non-DHCP Environments” section on page 20-8.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure dynamic ARP inspection. You must
perform this procedure on both switches. This procedure is required.
Command Purpose
Step 1
show cdp neighbors Verify the connection between the switches.
Step 2
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 3
ip arp inspection vlan vlan-range Enable dynamic ARP inspection on a per-VLAN basis. By
default, dynamic ARP inspection is disabled on all VLANs.
For vlan-range, specify a single VLAN identified by VLAN ID
number, a range of VLANs separated by a hyphen, or a series of
VLANs separated by a comma. The range is 1 to 4094.
Specify the same VLAN ID for both switches.
Step 4
interface interface-id Specify the interface connected to the other switch, and enter
interface configuration mode.
Step 5
no shutdown Enable the port, if necessary. By default, user network interfaces
(UNIs) and enhanced network interfaces (ENIs) are disabled,
and network node interfaces (NNIs) are enabled.
