Network to Media Resolution (ARP & NDP)

IPv4 network use Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to resolve IP address to MAC address.

arp <ip-address> <mac-address>

no arp <ip-address> <mac-address>

Sets a static ARP entry.

The no form of the command deletes the static ARP.

Syntax Description

Notes

ipv6 neighbor <ipv6-address> <ifname> <mac-address>

no ipv6 neighbor <ipv6-address> <ifname> <mac-address>

Adds a static neighbor entry.

The no form of the command deletes the static entry.

ipv6-address

IPv6 address

ifname

Management interface (i.e. eth0, eth1)

MAC address

clear ipv6 neighbors

Notes

  • ARP is used only with IPv4. In IPv6 networks, Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) is used similarly.

  • Use The no form of the command to remove static entries. Dynamic entries can be cleared via the “clear ipv6 neighbors” command.

clear ipv6 neighbors

Clears the dynamic neighbors cache.

Notes

  • Clearing Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) cache removes only the dynamic entries learned and not the static entries configured

  • Use the no form of the command to remove static entries
