Configuration Procedure; Configuring Arp Gateway Protection; Configuration Guidelines - HP FlexFabric 5700 Series Security Configuration Manual

Due to the limit on the total number of static ARP entries, some dynamic ARP entries might fail the
•
conversion.
To delete a static ARP entry converted from a dynamic one, use the undo arp ip-address command.
•
Use the reset arp all command to delete all ARP entries or the reset arp static command to delete
all static ARP entries.

Configuration procedure

To configure ARP scanning and fixed ARP:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN interface view.
3. Enable ARP automatic scanning.
4. Return to system view.
5. Enable fixed ARP.

Configuring ARP gateway protection

Configure this feature on interfaces not connected to 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
correctly.

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, MFF, and ARP snooping, ARP gateway
•
protection applies first.
