This may seem wrong but it usually makes sense, because it + increases the chance of successful communication. IP addresses are owned by + the complete host on Linux, not by particular interfaces. Only for more + complex setups like load-balancing, does this behaviour cause problems. + + If not set (default) allows you to have multiple network interfaces on the + same subnet, and have the ARPs for each interface be answered based on whether + or not the kernel would route a packet from the ARP'd IP out that interface + (therefore you must use source based routing for this to work). + + In other words it allows control of which cards (usually 1) will respond to an + arp request. + + Example: + + .. code-block:: none + + set interfaces {{ var0 }} {{ var1 }} {{ var2 }} {{ var4 }} {{ var5 }} {{ var7 }} ip disable-arp-filter + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces {{ var0 }} <interface> {{ var2 }} {{ var3 }} + {{ var5 }} {{ var6 }} ip disable-forwarding + + Configure interface-specific Host/Router behaviour.

Proxy ARP allows an Ethernet interface to respond with its own + :abbr:`MAC (Media Access Control)` address to ARP requests for destination IP + addresses on subnets attached to other interfaces on the system.

Current recommended practice in :rfc:`3704` is to enable strict + mode to prevent IP spoofing from DDos attacks. If using asymmetric routing + or other complicated routing, then loose mode is recommended. + + - strict: Each incoming packet is tested against the FIB and if the interface + is not the best reverse path the packet check will fail.
