Problem
The RU5 release of the Symantec Network Access Control (SNAC) 11.0 Gateway Enforcer software adds ARP proxy functionality. In certain situations it can be preferable to disable this functionality.
Error
Specifically, the ARP proxy functionality on the Gateway Enforcer can potentially cause routing issues on a network in certain situations if the Enforcer receives traffic from router that uses a Real MAC as source MAC of Virtual Internet Protocol (VIP) packets.
Solution
In the Gateway Enforcer command line interface (CLI) type the following commands:
- configure
- advanced
- arp-proxy disable
The ARP proxy functionality is enabled by default. The arp-proxy command to disable the functionality is introduced in the RU6 release of the Enforcer software.
