snmp-server arp-sync { interval | timeout } *

Use snmp-server arp-sync { interval | timeout } * to set parameters for synchronizing APR entries through SNMP.

Use undo snmp-server arp-sync { interval | timeout } to restore the default.

Syntax

snmp-server arp-sync { interval interval | timeout time } *

undo snmp-server arp-sync { interval | timeout }

Default

The interval for sending SNMP requests is 5 seconds and the timeout for SNMP responses is 3 seconds.

Parameters

interval interval: Specifies the interval for sending SNMP requests in the range of 5 to 30 seconds.

timeout time: Specifies the timeout for SNMP responses in the range of 1 to 5 seconds.

Usage guidelines

With this feature configured, the device sends SNMP requests for ARP entry synchronization to the target Layer 3 device at the specified intervals. If the device does not receive an SNMP response before the timeout expires within the specified interval, the device re-sends SNMP requests.

Examples

# Set the interval for sending SNMP requests and the timeout for SNMP responses to 10 and 2 seconds, respectively.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] snmp-server arp-sync interval 10 timeout 2

snmp-server arp-sync enable

Use snmp-server arp-sync enable to enable ARP entry synchronization through SNMP.

Use undo snmp-server arp-sync enable to disable ARP entry synchronization through SNMP.

Syntax

snmp-server arp-sync enable

undo snmp-server arp-sync enable

Default

ARP entry synchronization through SNMP is disabled.

Usage guidelines

With this feature enabled, the device acts as an NMS to learn all ARP entries on a Layer 3 device (agent) to obtain the MAC address of the Layer 3 device.

Examples

# Enable ARP entry synchronization through SNMP.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] snmp-server arp-sync enable

snmp-server arp-sync target-host

Use snmp-server arp-sync target-host to configure the target Layer 3 device for ARP synchronization through SNMP.

Use undo snmp-server arp-sync target-host to remove the configuration of the target Layer 3 device for ARP synchronization through SNMP.

Syntax

SNMPv2c:

snmp-server arp-sync target-host address ip-address community { simple | cipher } community-name v2c

undo snmp-server arp-sync target-host address ip-address community { simple | cipher } community-name

SNMPv3:

snmp-server arp-sync target-host address ip-address usm-user v3 user-name [ { simple | cipher } authentication-mode { md5 | sha } auth-password [ privacy-mode des pri-password ] ]

undo snmp-server arp-sync target-host address ip-address usm-user v3 user-name

Default

No target Layer 3 device is configured for ARP synchronization through SNMP.

Parameters

address ip-address: Specifies an IPv4 address of the target Layer 3 device.

simple: Specifies a community name in plaintext form. For security purposes, the community name specified in plaintext form will be stored in encrypted form.

cipher: Specifies a community name in encrypted form.

community-name: Specifies the community name. The plaintext form is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 32 characters. The encrypted form is a case-sensitive string of 33 to 73 characters. Input a string as escape characters after a backslash (\).

user-name: Specifies a username, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 32 characters.

simple: Specifies an authentication key and an encryption key in plaintext from. The keys will be converted to a digest in encrypted form and stored in the device.

cipher: Specifies an authentication key and an encryption key in encrypted form. The keys will be converted to a digest in encrypted form and stored in the device.

authentication-mode: Specifies an authentication algorithm. If you do not specify the keyword, the system does not perform authentication.

·     md5: Specifies the HMAC-MD5 authentication algorithm. For information about the HMAC-MD5 algorithm, see IPsec configuration in VPN Instance Configuration Guide.

·     sha: Specifies the HMAC-SHA1 authentication algorithm. For information about the HMAC-SHA1 algorithm, see IPsec configuration in VPN Instance Configuration Guide.

auth-password: Specifies an authentication key in plaintext form or encrypted form. This argument is case sensitive. The plaintext form of the key is a string of 8 to 64 characters.

privacy-mode: Specifies an encryption algorithm. If you do not specify this keyword, the system does not perform encryption.

des: Specifies the DES encryption algorithm that uses a 56-bit key.

priv-password: Specifies an encryption key in plaintext form or encrypted form. This argument is case sensitive. The plaintext form of the key is a string of 8 to 64 characters.

Usage guidelines

You can configure this command multiple times to specify multiple Layer 3 devices for ARP entry synchronization.

Examples

# Configure the device to use the plaintext form community name testCommunity to synchronize ARP entries from the Layer 3 device with IP address 10.1.1.1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] snmp-server arp-sync target-host address 10.1.1.1 community simple testCommunity v2c

# Configure the device to use username testUser to synchronize ARP entries from the Layer 3 device with IP address 10.1.1.1. Enable authentication and encryption for the user. Specify authentication algorithm HMAC-SHA1, encryption algorithm DES, plaintext-form authentication key 123456TESTauth&!, and plaintext-form encryption key 123456TESTencr&! for the user.

<Sysname> system-view
