arp

To add a permanent entry in the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache, use the arp command in the appropriate command mode. To remove an entry from the ARP cache, enter the no form of this command.

arp [vrf vrf-name] ip-address hardware-address encapsulation-type [alias]

no arp [vrf vrf-name] ip-address hardware-address encapsulation-type [alias]

Syntax Description


vrf	(Optional) Specifies VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance.
vrf-name	(Optional) VRF instance that identifies a VPN.
ip-address	IPv4 (network layer) address for which a permanent entry is added to the ARP cache. Enter the IPv4 address in a four-part dotted-decimal format that corresponds to the local data-link address (a 32-bit address).
hardware-address	Hardware (data link layer) address that the IPv4 address is linked to. Enter the local data-link address (a 48-bit address), such as 0800.0900.1834.
encapsulation-type	Encapsulation type. The encapsulation types are: arpa srp srpa srpb For Ethernet interfaces, this is typically the arpa keyword.
alias	(Optional) Causes the software to respond to ARP requests as if it were the owner of both the specified IP address and hardware address, whether proxy ARP is enabled or not.

Command Default

No entries are permanently installed in the ARP cache.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Host-tracking configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.
Release 24.1.1	This command was made available in the host-tracking configuration mode.

Usage Guidelines

The software uses ARP cache entries to translate 32-bit IP addresses into 48-bit hardware addresses.

Because most hosts support dynamic resolution, you generally need not specify static ARP cache entries.

Static entries are permanent entries that map a network layer address (IPv4 address) to a data-link layer address (MAC address). If the alias keyword is specified when creating the entry, the interface to which the entry is attached will act as if it is the owner of the specified addresses, that is, it will respond to ARP request packets for this network layer address with the data link layer address in the entry.

The software does not respond to any ARP requests received for the specified IP address unless proxy ARP is enabled on the interface on which the request is received. When proxy ARP is enabled, the software responds to ARP requests with its own local interface hardware address.

To remove all nonstatic entries from the ARP cache, enter the clear arp-cache in the appropriate configuration mode.

arp police-interval

To permit policing of duplicate ARP packets from the same sender protocol address (IP) or same source MAC address within the specified interval, use the arp police-interval command in the global configuration mode.

Behavior of the policer:

When the arp police-interval command is configured, ARP requests coming from the same IP address or MAC address within the configured interval are dropped.
If there was an ARP response existing for the ARP request from the same IP address within the configured interval, the new request will be dropped.
If the ARP response was not existing already for the ARP request from the same IP address, then the MAC policer will be checked.

arp police-interval interval

Table 1. show arp Command Field Descriptions

Field

Description

Address

Displays the network address that corresponds to the hardware address.

Age

Displays the age in hours:minutes:seconds of the cache entry. A hyphen (-) means the address is local.

Hardware Addr

Displays the LAN hardware address of a MAC address that corresponds to the network address.

State

Displays the current state of the cache entry. Values are:

Dynamic
Interface
Alias
Static
“-” (indicates global static and alias entries)

Type

Displays the encapsulation type the Cisco IOS XR software is using for the network address in this entry. Value is ARPA.

Interface

Displays the interface associated with this network address.

ARP statistics

Displays ARP packet and error statistics.

ARP cache

Displays general information about the IP address and MAC address association entries in the ARP cache.

IP Packet drop count for node */*/*

Displays the number of IP packets dropped because the buffer ran out of space before an ARP response was received.

Note

*/*/* represents the node ID in the format rack/slot/module.

show arp idb

To display the ARP database statistics for an interface, use the show arp idb command in EXEC mode.

show arp idb interface-name location node-id

Syntax Description


`interface-name`	Name of the interface
`node-id`	Location of the interface. LC node for physical interfaces, RP or LC node for virtual interfaces

Command Default

There is no default location, location needs to be provided in the CLI.

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 3.3.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The show arp idb command is useful to verify the IP addresses, Mac address, ARP configuration(s) applied on the interface and the entry statistics.

For show arp idb interface-type interface-instance form, the location node-id keyword and argument is mandatory for Bundle and VLAN-on-Bundle interfaces to indicate which location the cache entries for the bundle should be displayed.

show arp traffic

To display Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) traffic statistics, enter the show arp traffic command in XR EXEC mode.

show arp traffic [vrf vrf-name] [interface-path-id] [location node-id]

Syntax Description


vrf	(Optional) Specifies VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance.
vrf-name	(Optional) VRF instance that identifies a VPN.
`interface-` `path-id`	(Optional) Either a physical interface instance or a virtual interface instance as follows: Physical interface instance. Naming notation is rack/slot/module/port and a slash between values is required as part of the notation. rack: Chassis number of the rack. slot: Physical slot number of the modular services card or line card. module: Module number. A physical layer interface module (PLIM) is always 0. port: Physical port number of the interface. Virtual interface instance. Number range varies depending on interface type. For more information about the syntax for the router, use the question mark (?) online help function.
location `node-id`	(Optional) Displays the ARP entry for a specific location. The `node-id` argument is entered in the rack/slot/module notation.

Command Default

The active RSP is the default location.

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

ARP establishes correspondences between network addresses (an IP address, for example) and Ethernet hardware addresses. A record of each correspondence is kept in a cache for a predetermined amount of time and then discarded.

For show arp traffic, interface-instance , the locationnode-id keyword and argument is mandatory for Bundle and VLAN-on-Bundle interfaces to indicate which location the cache entries for the bundle should be displayed. For physical interfaces, specifying the location node-id keyword and argument is optional since the interface can only exist on one node.
