Configuring Static ARP Entries
ARP dynamically maps the MAC and IP addresses, and while most network host support dynamic mapping,
you can configure an ARP entry (called a static ARP) for the ARP cache.
To configure a static ARP entry, use the following command.
• Configure an IP address and MAC address mapping for an interface.
CONFIGURATION mode
arp vrf vrf-name ip-address mac-address interface
•
vrf vrf-name
: use the VRF option to configure a static ARP on that particular VRF.
•
ip-address
: IP address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).
•
mac-address
: MAC address in nnnn.nnnn.nnnn format.
•
interface
: enter the interface type slot/port information. For 10G interfaces, enter the slot/port
information.
Example of the
show arp
Command
These entries do not age and can only be removed manually. To remove a static ARP entry, use the
no arp
ip-address
command.
To view the static entries in the ARP cache, use the
show arp static
command in EXEC privilege mode.
