Usage Guidelines
•
Use the no form of this command to delete an ARP filter.
•
If there are no filters configured for the switch, all ARP Request packets received are processed.
•
Up to 200 filters are allowed on each switch.
•
If sender or target IP address in an ARP Request packet does not match any filter criteria, the packet is
processed by the switch.
•
ARP filtering is generally used in conjunction with the Local Proxy ARP application; however, ARP
filtering is available for use on its own and/or with other applications.
