◆ Proxy ARP allows a non-routing device to determine the MAC address of
a host on another subnet or network.
◆ End stations that require Proxy ARP must view the entire network as a
single network. These nodes must therefore use a smaller subnet mask
than that used by the router or other relevant network devices.
◆ Extensive use of Proxy ARP can degrade router performance because it
may lead to increased ARP traffic and increased search time for larger
ARP address tables.
