Configure Basic Functions of ARP Check
Network Requirements
- PC1 and PC2 are connected to IP Network via Device.
- Configure the ARP Check basic function, realizing that PC1 can access IP Network normally and PC2 cannot access IP Network.

Configuration Steps
Step 1: Configure the link type of the VLAN and port on Device.
#Create VLAN2.
Device#configure terminal
Device(config)#vlan 2
Device(config-vlan2)#exit
|
# Configure the link type of the port gigabitethernet0/1 as Access and permit the services of VLAN2 to pass.
Device(config)#interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#switchport mode access
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#switchport access vlan 2
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#exit
|
Step 2: Configure the ARP Check function on Device.
#Enable the ARP Check function on the port gigabitethernet0/1 and configure the ARP Check binding entry with MAC address 0012.0100.0002 and IP address 192.168.1.2.
Device(config)#interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#arp-check enable
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#arp-check binding 0012.0100.0002 192.168.1.2 rate 10
Device(config-if-gigabitethernet0/1)#exit
|
Step 3: Check the result.
#View the ARP Check configuration information.
Device#show arp-check brief
Interface Name Status Binding Table
gi0/1 Enable Yes
……
You can see that the port gigabitethernet0/1 is enabled with the ARP Check function, and there is the ARP Check entry.
#View the port ARP Check binding entry.
Device#show arp-check interface gigabitethernet0/1
