6.1.2.2. ip proxy-arp
This command enables proxy ARP on a router interface or range of interfaces. Without proxy ARP, a device only
responses to an ARP request if the target IP address is an address configured on the interface where the ARP
request arrived. With proxy ARP, the device may also response if the target IP address is reachable. The device
only responses if all next hops in its route to the destination are through interfaces other than the interface that
received the ARP request.
To disable proxy ARP on a router interface, use the no form of this command.
