■ Configuring Gratuitous ARP Globally
Follow these steps to add static ARP entries:
Step 1 configure
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 gratuitous-arp intf-status-up enable
Enable the Layer 3 interface to send a gratuitous ARP packet to detect if its IP address is used
by other devices. It is enabled by default
Step 3 gratuitous-arp dup-ip-detected enable
(Optional) Enable the Layer 3 interface to send a gratuitous packet when the interface received
a gratuitous ARP packet with the same IP address with its own. It is disabled by default.
Step 4 gratuitous-arp learning enable
(Optional) Enable the switch to learn MAC address entries from gratuitous ARP packets.
Generally, the switch only learn MAC address entries form normal ARP packets. With this
option enabled, the switch will also learn MAC address entries from gratuitous ARP packets. By
default, it is disabled.
Step 5 show gratuitous-arp
Show the gratuitous ARP configuration.
Step 6 end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7 copy running-config startup-config
