mac-address

—MAC address to map to the specified IP address or IP alias.

interface-id

—Address pair is added for specified interface.

Command Mode

Global Configuration mode

Default Configuration

No permanent entry is defined.
If no interface ID is entered, address pair is relevant to all interfaces.

User Guidelines

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

bit hardware (MAC) addresses. Because most hosts support dynamic address

resolution, static ARP cache entries generally do not need to be specified.

Example

The following example adds IP address 198.133.219.232 and MAC address

00:00:0c:40:0f:bc to the ARP table.

console(config)# arp 198.133.219.232 00:00:0c:40:0f:bc vlan100
