Addess Resolution Protocol (ARP)
FTOS uses two forms of address resolution: ARP and proxy ARP.
ARP runs over Ethernet and enables endstations to learn the MAC addresses of neighbors on an IP
network. Over time, FTOS creates a forwarding table mapping the MAC addresses to their corresponding
IP address. This table is called ARP cache. Dynamically learned addresses are removed after a defined
period of time.
For more information about ARP, refer to RFC 826,
An Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol.
traceroute [host | ip-address ]
CONFIGURATION When you enter the traceroute command without
specifying an IP address (Extended Traceroute), you are
prompted for:
• a target and source IP address
• timeout in seconds (default is 5)
• a probe count (default is 3)
• minimum TTL (default is 1)
• maximum TTL (default is 30)
• port number (default is 33434).
To keep the default setting for those parameters, press the
ENTER key.
