RtssArp

RtssArp displays and modifies the IP-to-Physical address translation tables used by the address resolution protocol (ARP).

Usage

You must use one of the following commands when using RtssArp.

To add an entry:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -s inet_addr eth_addr [interface] [-t TTL]

To delete an entry:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -d inet_addr [interface]

To display the ARP table:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -a

Options

Option

Description

-a

Displays the current entries for the ARP table.

-d

Deletes the host specified by inet_addr.

-s

Adds the host and associates the Internet Address inet_addr with the Physical Address eth_addr. The Physical Address is given as 6 hexadecimal bytes separated by hyphens.

-t

The time, in minutes, that an entry will live. The default is 0 which results in a permanent static entry. To set a timeout value of 0xFFFFFFFF, which is near infinity, set the value to -1.

For example: rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -s 192.168.123.60 a4-ba-db-fc-10-d6 -t -1

Note: You can specify any number within the range of 1 and 4294967295.

inet_addr

Specifies an Internet Address.

eth_addr

Specifies a Physical Address.

interface

The interface (rtnd<n>) whose address translation table should be modified. If not present, then 'rtnd0' is used.

Notes

RTX with a static ARP entry does not reply to received ARP requests. To communicate between RTX and a network device with a static ARP entry, each side must have permanent ARP entries.

Examples

Adding an entry:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -s 192.168.21.2 11-22-33-44-55-66

Deleting an entry:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -d 192.168.21.2

Displaying the ARP table:

Rtssrun RtssArp.rtss -a
