Configuring static ARP for Multi-VRF

The interface associated with an ARP entry determines to which VRF the ARP entry belongs.

An ARP entry is defined by the following parameters:

  • IP address
  • MAC address
  • Type
  • Interface

The following example illustrates how to configure static ARP on default VRFs on an Ethernet interface. 

device(config)# arp 192.168.1.100 0000.2344.2441 eth 1/7/1

The following example configures static-ARP entries on a nondefault VRF interface. The VRF command does not require an ARP index before a static-ARP is configured. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# vrf customer-1
device(config-vrf-customer-1)# address-family ipv4
device(config-vrf-customer-1-ipv4)# arp 1.1.1.1 0004.8044.5566 ethernet 1/7/8
device(config-vrf-customer-1-ipv4)# exit-address-family 
device(config-vrf-customer-1)# exit-vrf
device(config)#
