Configuring ARP gateway protection

Configure this feature on interfaces not connected with a gateway to prevent gateway spoofing attacks.
When such an interface receives an ARP packet, it checks whether the sender IP address in the packet is
consistent with that of any protected gateway. If yes, it discards the packet. If not, it handles the packet
normally.

Configuration guidelines

Follow these guidelines when you configure ARP gateway protection:
You can enable ARP gateway protection for a maximum of eight gateways on an interface.
Do not configure both the arp filter source and arp filter binding commands on an interface.
If ARP gateway protection works with ARP detection and ARP snooping, ARP gateway protection
applies first.
