bogus arp table contents

Tod Larson

My 2821 router has an arp table with the wrong ip to Mac mappings. The impact is that I can reach any host in the 10.1.1.1 subnet. I can reach hosts in the 192.168.35.0 just fine.

Int g0/0

Ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

Ip address 192.168.35.2 255.255.255.0 secondary

The router arp table has this info

10.1.1.1 Mac d43d

192.168.35.252 32da

192.168.35.2 Mac bb33

192.168.35.1 Mac 78ab

10.1.1.2 Mac 78ab

10.1.1.3 Mac 78ab

10.1.1.4 Mac 78ab

10.1.1.5 Mac 78ab

...

10.1.1.21 Mac 78ab

Any ideas what is going on? It is as if the 192.168.35.1 device is answering all arp requests as a proxy arp or something.

Clear arp-cache nor clear ip arp on my 2821 have any affect.

I ended up working around the problem by creating a separate vlan for both subnets and not having secondary addressing. Now things seem to work as expected.
