Usage Guidelines

For BGP EVPN, when ARP suppression is enabled, ARP suppression extends to corresponding EVPNs, VNIs, and EVIs. When this command is used, snooping MAC-IP bindings of any local endpoints for that VLAN is enabled. The information is maintained in a per-VLAN MAC-IP table. In addition to MAC-IP bindings learned via ARP snooping, any MAC-IP bindings learned via the BGP EVPN control plane are also stored in the same MAC-IP table.

This command is supported for RUCKUS ICX 7850 and ICX 7550 devices only.

The no form of the command disables ARP suppression for the VNI with ID 100.

Examples

The following example enables ARP suppression for a VNI for a L2VPN EVPN instance. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# l2vpn evpn
device(config-evpn)# evpn-instance 100 vlan-based
device(config-evpn-evi)# arp-suppression
