Command Usage
â—†
The ARP cache is used to map 32-bit IP addresses into 48-bit hardware (i.e.,
Media Access Control) addresses. This cache includes entries for hosts and
other routers on local network interfaces defined on this router.
â—†
The maximum number of static entries allowed in the ARP cache is 128.
â—†
A static entry may need to be used if there is no response to an ARP broadcast
message. For example, some applications may not respond to ARP requests or
the response arrives too late, causing network operations to time out.
â—†
Static entries will not be aged out nor deleted when power is reset. A static
entry can only be removed through the configuration interface.
Example
Console(config)#arp 10.1.0.19 01-02-03-04-05-06
Console(config)#

Command Usage
â—†
Proxy ARP allows a non-routing device to determine the MAC address of a host
on another subnet or network.
â—†
End stations that require Proxy ARP must view the entire network as a single
network. These nodes must therefore use a smaller subnet mask than that used
by the router or other relevant network devices.
