arp resolving-route enable
Use arp resolving-route enable to enable ARP black hole routing.
Use undo arp resolving-route enable to disable ARP black hole routing.
Syntax
arp resolving-route enable

Default
The ARP black hole routing function is enabled.

Usage guidelines
Configure this feature on the gateways.
If a device receives a large number of unresolvable IP packets from a host, the following situations can occur:
· The device sends a large number of ARP requests, overloading the target subnets.
· The device keeps trying to resolve destination IP addresses, overloading its CPU.
If the IP packets have different source addresses, you can enable the ARP black hole routing function. After receiving an unresolvable IP packet, the device creates a black hole route destined for the target IP address and drops all matching packets until the black hole route ages out.
Examples
# Enable ARP black hole routing.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] arp resolving-route enable

Parameters
limit-value: Sets the maximum number of unresolvable packets that can be processed in 5 seconds. It is in the range of 2 to 1024.
Usage guidelines
If the number of unresolvable packets from a host within 5 seconds exceeds the specified threshold, the device stops processing packets from that host until the 5 seconds elapse.
Examples
# Set the maximum number of unresolvable packets that can be received from a device in 5 seconds to 100.

Parameters
pps: Specifies the upper limit for ARP packet rate in pps. The value is in the range of 10 to 5000.
Usage guidelines
If you do not specify the pps argument in the arp rate-limit command, ARP packet rate limit is disabled.
Examples
# Specify the maximum ARP packet rate on GigabitEthernet 3/0/1 as 50 pps.

Source MAC based ARP attack detection commands
arp source-mac
Use arp source-mac to enable the source MAC address based ARP attack detection and specify a handling method.
Use undo arp source-mac to restore the default.
Syntax
arp source-mac { filter | monitor }
undo arp source-mac [ filter | monitor ]
Default
The source MAC address based ARP attack detection function is disabled.

mdc-admin
Parameters
filter: Generates log messages and discards subsequent ARP packets from the MAC address.
monitor: Only generates log message.
Usage guidelines
Configure this feature on the gateway devices.
This function enables the switch to check the source MAC address of ARP packets received from the same MAC address within 5 seconds against a specific threshold. If the threshold is exceeded, the switch takes the preconfigured method to handle the attack.
If neither the filter nor the monitor keyword is specified in the undo arp anti-attack source-mac command, both handling methods are disabled.
Examples
# Enable the source MAC based ARP attack detection and specify the filter handling method.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] arp source-mac filter
arp source-mac aging-time
Use arp source-mac aging-time to configure the aging time for ARP attack entries.
Use undo arp anti-attack source-mac aging-time to restore the default.
Syntax
arp source-mac aging-time time
undo arp source-mac aging-time
Default
The aging time for ARP attack entries is set to 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Parameters
dst-mac: Checks the target MAC address of ARP responses. If the target MAC address is all-zero, all-one, or inconsistent with the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header, the packet is considered invalid and discarded.
ip: Checks the sender and target IP addresses of ARP replies, and the sender IP address of ARP requests. All-zero, all-one, or multicast IP addresses are considered invalid and the corresponding packets are discarded.
src-mac: Checks whether the sender MAC address in the message body is identical to the source MAC address in the Ethernet header. If they are identical, the packet is forwarded. Otherwise, the packet is discarded.
Examples
# Enable ARP packet validity check by checking the MAC addresses and IP addresses of ARP packets.

ARP automatic scanning and fixed ARP commands
arp fixup
Use arp fixup to change the existing dynamic ARP entries into static ARP entries. You can use this command again to change the dynamic ARP entries learned later into static.
Syntax
arp fixup
Views
System view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
mdc-admin
Usage guidelines
The static ARP entries changed from dynamic ARP entries have the same attributes as the manually configured static ARP entries.
The number of static ARP entries changed from dynamic ARP entries is restricted by the number of static ARP entries that the device supports. As a result, the device may fail to change some dynamic ARP entries into static ARP entries.
Suppose that the number of dynamic ARP entries is D and that of the existing static ARP entries is S. When the dynamic ARP entries are being changed into static, new dynamic ARP entries may be created (suppose the number is M) and some of the dynamic ARP entries may be aged out (suppose the number is N). After the change process is completed, the number of static ARP entries is D + S + M – N.
To delete a specific static ARP entry changed from a dynamic one, use the undo arp ip-address [ vpn-instance-name ] command. To delete all such static ARP entries, use the reset arp all or reset arp static command.
Examples
# Enable fixed ARP.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] arp fixup
arp scan
Use arp scan to enable ARP automatic scanning in the specified address range.
Syntax
arp scan [ start-ip-address to end-ip-address ]

Predefined user roles

mdc-admin
Parameters
start-ip-address: Specifies the start IP address of the scanning range.
end-ip-address: Specifies the end IP address of the scanning range. The end IP address must be higher than or equal to the start IP address.
Usage guidelines
If the start and end IP addresses are specified, the device scans the neighbor IP addresses in the specified address range to learn ARP entries. If the sending interface has multiple IP addresses falling within the specified address range, the sender IP address in the sent ARP requests is the interface address on the smallest network segment.
If you do not specify any address range, the device only scans neighbors on the network where the primary IP address of the interface resides. The sender IP address in the ARP requests is the primary IP address of the interface.
The start IP address and end IP address must be on the same network as the primary IP address or manually configured secondary IP addresses of the interface.
IP addresses already exist in ARP entries are not scanned.
ARP automatic scanning may take some time. To stop an ongoing scan, press Ctrl + C. Dynamic ARP entries are created based on ARP replies received before the scan is terminated.
Examples
# Configure the device to scan the neighbors on the network where the primary IP address of VLAN-interface 2 resides.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 2
