Common proxy ARP configuration example 
Network requirements 
As shown in Figure 5, Host A and Host D have the same prefix and mask, but they are located on 
different subnets. No default gateway is configured on Host A and Host D. 
Configure common proxy ARP on the router to enable communication between Host A and Host D.
