Advanced Settings
On the Advanced Settings page in the Network Settings folder, you can modify Gratuitous ARP. For
this function, the NPort will actively send ARP packets to inform the devices in the network how to find the
NPort. If you enable Ethernet/Bridge mode, you can input the IP/MAC address of the legacy device that
connected to the Ethernet port of the NPort. The NPort will help to send out the ARP packets with its IP
address to inform the network how to find this legacy device.
Gratuitous ARP
Default Enabled
Options Enable / Disable
Description Gratuitous ARP requests provide duplicate IP address detection. The NPort sends
broadcast packets to update ARP tables on other devices (e.g., AP, PC) periodically. We
can use this function to notify networked devices that the NPort is still alive. Moreover, the
NPort can send Gratuitous ARP for legacy devices that do not have this function.
If you want the NPort to send Gratuitous ARP for legacy devices, you should enter the
legacy devices’ IP and Mac addresses in IP/MAC address field.
Send Period
Default 180 seconds
Options 10-1000 seconds
Description This field specifies how long the NPort periodically sends Gratuitous ARP.
IP/MAC Addresses
Default N/A
Options IP address and MAC address of the legacy device (e.g., IP: “192.168.1.1”, MAC:
“11:22:33:44:AA:11”). This function only available when Ethernet Bridge is enabled.
Description IP address: legacy device IP address.
MAC address: legacy devices MAC address.
