Proxy ARP

Does ASL support Proxy ARP?
To allow ISP provided IP range used behind firewall? [;)]

    In principle you can do proxy ARP. linux 2.4 will automatically do proxy arp when you set an interface route for the respective network and if ipv4 forwarding is enabled.

    so you can just put a route for your ISP's network into your LAN interface, and ASL will forward the packets from the opposite interface into your LAN.

    However, this is a "dirty" solution. Better ask your ISP for a small transfer network. Even a transfer network with private IPs (192.168.x.x) will work (but it's not so nice to bind services to it [:)].

    Wouldn't it be just as possible to modify the startup scripts to insert a line similar to :

    arp -i eth1 -Ds 
     eth0 pub

    Cheers,

    greg,

    yes this will work too, only you'll have to scp an arp binary to the machine.
