Configure Proxy ARP
To configure the device server for Proxy ARP, use the “set forwarding”
command. See "set forwarding" on page 120.
This procedure assumes that you have signed on as “root” and have
configured or will configure modems, modem scripts, devices, and filters
for routes that use serial lines.
1. Configure the links over which packets will be routed using a “set user”
command. This command must specify (on the “ipaddr” option) a
specific IP address for the remote system using the Proxy ARP service.
2. Configure the device server for Proxy ARP by supplying a
“set forwarding” command that specifies the following options:
• “state=passive”
• “proxyarp=on”
For example, the device server provides Proxy ARP services to a remote
host.
The commands to configure this setup are:
#> set user name=link1...ipaddr=187.155.24.11
#> set forwarding state=passive proxyarp=on
