Usage Guidelines

You must configure the RARP entries for the RARP table. The Layer 3 switch can send an IP address in reply to a client RARP request only if create a RARP entry for that client.

The no form of the command removes the static IP RARP entry.

Examples

The following example creates a RARP entry for a client with MAC address 0000.0054.2348. When the Layer 3 switch receives a RARP request from this client, the Layer 3 switch replies to the request by sending IP address 192.53.4.2 to the client. 

device(config)# rarp 1 0000.0054.2348 192.53.4.2
