Ip-To-Mac Bindings - H3C S5120-SI Series Configuration Manual

MAC addresses, port index, and VLAN ID) are consistent, the ARP packet passes the check; if not,
the ARP packet cannot pass the check.
Upon receiving an ARP packet from an ARP trusted port, the device does not check the ARP
packet.
If ARP detection is not enabled for the VLAN, the ARP packet is not checked even if it is received
from an ARP untrusted port.
2) After you enable ARP detection based on 802.1X security entries, the device, upon receiving an
ARP packet from an ARP untrusted port, compares the ARP packet against the 802.1X security
entries.
If an entry with identical source IP and MAC addresses, port index, and VLAN ID is found, the ARP
packet is considered valid.
If an entry with no matching IP address but with a matching OUI MAC address is found, the ARP
packet is considered valid.
Otherwise, the packet is considered invalid and discarded.
3) After you enable ARP detection based on static IP-to-MAC bindings, the device, upon receiving an
ARP packet from an ARP trusted/untrusted port, compares the source IP and MAC addresses of
the ARP packet against the static IP-to-MAC bindings.
If an entry with a matching IP address but a different MAC address is found, the ARP packet is
considered invalid and discarded.
If an entry with both matching IP and MAC addresses is found, the ARP packet is considered valid
and can pass the detection.
If no match is found, the ARP packet is considered valid and can pass the detection.
If all the detection types are specified, the system uses static IP-to-MAC binding entries first, then
DHCP snooping entries, and then 802.1X security entries. To prevent gateway spoofing, ARP detection
based on IP-to-MAC binding entries is required. After passing this type of ARP detection, users that can
pass ARP detection based on DHCP snooping entries or 802.1X security entries are considered to be
valid. The last two detection types are used to prevent user spoofing. You can select detection types
according to the networking environment.
If all access clients acquire IP addresses through DHCP, it is recommended that you enable DHCP
snooping and ARP detection based on DHCP snooping entries on your access device.
If access clients are large in number and most of them use static IP addresses,. If access clients
are 802.1X clients, it is recommended that you enable 802.1X authentication, upload of client IP
addresses, and ARP detection based on 802.1X security entries on your access device. After that,
the access device uses mappings between IP addresses, MAC addresses, VLAN IDs, and ports of
802.1X authentication clients for ARP detection.
Follow these steps to enable ARP detection for a VLAN and specify a trusted port:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter VLAN view
Enable ARP detection for the
VLAN
Use the command...
system-view
vlan vlan-id
arp detection enable
