IP Addressing and Protocol Commands

ip proxy-arp

This command enables Proxy ARP responses to ARP requests on an interface. When enabled,
your device intercepts ARP broadcast packets and substitutes its own physical address for that
of the remote host. By responding to the ARP request, your device ensures that subsequent
packets from the local host are directed to its physical address, and it can then forward these to
the remote host.
Your device responds only when it has a specific route to the address being requested,
excluding the interface route that the ARP request arrived from. It ignores all other ARP
requests. See the
ARP messages.
The no form disables Proxy ARP responses on an interface. Proxy ARP is disabled by default.
