Static ARP Entries on Ethernet Interfaces

You can provision static Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) entries for a device instead of dynamically resolving an IP address to a MAC address. Note that dynamic resolution of an IP address is the default behavior. These static ARP entries enable the device to respond to ARP requests even if the destination address of the request is not local to the Ethernet interface that receives the incoming traffic.
