ip rarp

Enables IP Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP).
Syntax
ip rarp

Command Default

RARP is enabled by default.

Usage Guidelines

RARP allows an IP host that does not have a means of storing its IP address across power cycles or software reloads to query a directly-attached router for an IP address. RARP is enabled by default. However, you must create a RARP entry for each host that will use the Layer 3 switch for booting.

The no form of the command disables IP RARP.

Examples

The following example disables IP RARP. 

device(config)# no ip rarp
