ARP Inspection

– 317 –

ARP Inspection ACLs can be applied to any configured VLAN.

ARP Inspection uses the DHCP snooping bindings database for the list

of valid IP-to-MAC address bindings. ARP ACLs take precedence over

entries in the DHCP snooping bindings database. The switch first

compares ARP packets to any specified ARP ACLs.

If Static is specified, ARP packets are only validated against the

selected ACL – packets are filtered according to any matching rules,

packets not matching any rules are dropped, and the DHCP snooping

bindings database check is bypassed.

If Static is not specified, ARP packets are first validated against the
selected ACL; if no ACL rules match the packets, then the DHCP

snooping bindings database determines their validity.

These parameters are displayed:

ARP Inspection VLAN ID – Selects any configured VLAN. (Default: 1)

ARP Inspection VLAN Status – Enables ARP Inspection for the

selected VLAN. (Default: Disabled)

ARP Inspection ACL Name

ARP ACL – Allows selection of any configured ARP ACLs.

(Default: None)

Static – When an ARP ACL is selected, and static mode also

selected, the switch only performs ARP Inspection and bypasses

validation against the DHCP Snooping Bindings database. When an

ARP ACL is selected, but static mode is not selected, the switch first

performs ARP Inspection and then validation against the DHCP

Snooping Bindings database. (Default: Disabled)
