Creating Static ARP Entries

Static ARP entries are used to administratively define the IP-to-MAC address mappings or Layer 3-to-Layer 2 address mappings.
Note: You cannot create static ARP entries on a Layer 2 switch.
  1. Enter global configuration mode. 
    device# configure terminal
  2. Create a static ARP entry in the ARP cache. 
    device(config)# arp 10.53.4.2 0000.0054.2348 ethernet 1/1/2

The following example allows ARP responses from the IP address 10.53.4.2 associated with the MAC address 0000.0054.2348, for Ethernet interface 1/1/2. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# arp 10.53.4.2 0000.0054.2348 ethernet 1/1/2
