Total Access 600R User Interface Guide (UIG)

Proxy ARP

This feature allows the network portion of a group of addresses to be shared among several physical

network segments. The ARP protocol provides a way for devices to create a mapping between physical

addresses and logical IP addresses. Proxy ARP makes use of this mapping feature by instructing a

router to answer ARP requests as a “proxy” for the IP addresses behind one of its ports. The device

which sent the ARP request will then correctly assume that it can reach the requested IP address by

sending packets to the physical address that was returned. This technique effectively hides the fact that

a network has been (further) subnetted. If this option is set to Y

, when an ARP request is received on

the Ethernet port the address is looked up in the IP routing table. If the forwarding port is not on the

Ethernet port and the route is not the default route, the Total Access 600R will answer the request with

its own hardware address. Default is Y

ROUTER>CONFIG>ETHERNET>SECONDARY IPS

This allows the Total Access 600R to specify additional IP addresses and networks on its Ethernet. The max-

imum number of entries is 10.

IP Address

This is the second IP address the 600R will respond to on the Ethernet. Default is

0.0.0.0

Subnet Mask

This is the mask for the network. Default is

255.255.255.0

ROUTER>CONFIG>ETHERNET>MAC ADDRESS

This is a read-only field which displays the unique MAC address programmed at ADTRAN.

ROUTER>CONFIG>WAN

Use the WAN menu (Figure 9) to configure WAN settings on the 600R.

ODE

Enables or disables RIP. Default is O

ROTOCOL

Specifies the RIP protocol. Choices are

(RIP version 1) or

(RIP version 2). Default is

V1.

METHOD

Specifies the way the RIP protocol sends out its advertise-

ments. Choices are given below.

ONE

All routes in the router table are advertised with no

modification of the metrics.

PLIT

ORIZON

Only routes not learned from this circuit are adver-

tised.

POISON REVERSE

(

DEF

)

All routes are advertised, but the routes learned

from this port are “poisoned” with an infinite met-

ric.

IRECTION

Allows the direction at which RIP advertisements are sent and

listened to be specified.

AND

RX (

DEF

)

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and

are listened to on this port.

TX O

NLY

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted but

are not listened to on this port.

RX ONLY

RIP advertisements are listened to on this port, but

are not transmitted on this port.

V2 S

ECRET

Enter the secret used by RIP version 2 here.
