Configuring IP Unnumbered Interface Support with Connected Host Polling

Configuring IP Unnumbered Interface Support with Connected
Host Polling
To configure IP unnumbered interface support with connected host polling, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Switch# enable
Step 2
Switch# configure terminal
Step 3
Switch(config)# interface vlan vlan-id
Step 4
Switch(config-if)# ip unnumbered type number poll
Step 5
Switch(config-if)# exit
Step 6
Switch(config)# ip arp poll queue <10-10000>
Step 7
Switch(config)# ip arp poll rate <10-10000>
Step 8
Switch(config)# end
Step 9
Switch# show running-config
The following example shows how to enable IP processing and connected host polling on Fast Ethernet
interface 6/2. It also shows how to set the global backlog queue to 2000 and the maximum number of
ARP requests to 500:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.
Switch(config)# interface fastEthernet 6/2
Switch(config-if)# no switchport
Switch(config-if)# ip unnumbered loopback 0 poll
Warning: dynamic routing protocols will not work on non-point-to-point interfaces with IP
unnumbered configured.
Switch(config-if)# exit
Switch(config)# ip arp poll queue 2000
Switch(config)# ip arp poll rate 500
Switch(config)# end

Purpose
Enables privileged EXEC mode.
Enter your password if prompted.
Enters global configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode and the interface to
be configured as a tunnel port.
Enables IP processing and connected host polling on an
interface without assigning an explicit IP address to the
interface
type and number specify another interface on which the
switch has an assigned IP address. The interface specified
cannot be another unnumbered interface.
The type argument can have the values: loopback,
fastethernet, gigabitethernet, svi, and portchannel.
Returns to global configuration mode.
Configures the global backlog queue of host addresses to
be discovered.
Default for the queue size is 1000.
Configures the maximum number of ARP requests sent
over unnumbered interfaces.
Default number of ARP requests is 1000 packet per
second.
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Verifies that IP unnumbered support has been configured
correctly.
End with CNTL/Z.
