Important Considerations
■
The system uses the ARP cache to find the MAC addresses that
correspond to the IP addresses of hosts and other routers on the same
subnets. Each device that participates in routing maintains an ARP
cache, which is a table of known IP addresses and their corresponding
MAC addresses.
■
The first line in the output (the status line) indicates whether IP routing
is enabled (in-band only):
■
IP interface options (such as ICMP router discovery) appear under
ip interface detail
and are set on a per-interface basis. The
second status line indicates the number of entries in the ARP
cache.
