regarding proxy arp behaviour

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I  have configured router1 with linux ip stack  with two vlans on two
interfaces.  First interface vlan 1(Which has one port) is configured
with 1.1.1.1/24 . Second interface vlan 2 (which has one port) is
configured with 2.2.2.1/24.

This is routing table

                   1.1.1.0  255.255.255.0  vlan 1
                   2.2.2.0 255.255.255.0  vlan 2
                   0.0.0.0  10.32.154.144  eth0


  I have enabled proxy arp on the first vlan interface.  I am doing
testing from  router2 and configured for 1.1.1.2/24.  Added static
route 3.3.0.0/16 through vlan1  in router2 .   Router2  is connected
my router1  with vlan 1.  Pinging  3.3.3.4 sends arp from Router2 to
Router1.  But  because proxy arp is enabled,  Router1 was sending the
vlan 1 mac address. But this behavior is not  expected.  I expect,
only for the connected subnets only  linux ip stack on Router1 should
reply. I removed the default route on router 1. Then router 1 was
behaving correctly.  Why is this problem exists? Please give
suggestions.

Thanks
Phani
