 160  162             the  word trail is accepted on entries for compatibil-

 163  165             arp -s can be used for a limited  form  of  proxy  ARP
 164  166             when  a  host on one of the directly attached networks
 165  167             is not physically present on a subnet. Another machine
 166  168             can  then  be  configured  to  respond to ARP requests
 167  169             using arp -s. This is useful in  certain  SLIP  confi-
 168  170             gurations.

      172 +           Non-temporary proxy ARP entries for  an IPMP group are
      173 +           automatically managed by the kernel.  Specifically, if
      174 +           the hardware address  in an entry matches the hardware
      175 +           address of an IP  interface in an  IPMP group, and the
      176 +           IP  address is not local to   the system, this will be
      177 +           regarded as an IPMP proxy  ARP entry.  This entry will
      178 +           have  its hardware address  automatically adjusted  in
      179 +           order to keep the IP address  reachable so long as the
      180 +           IPMP group has not entirely failed.
 170  181  
      182 +           ARP entries  must be consistent  across an IPMP group.
      183 +           Therefore, ARP   entries  cannot be   associated  with
      184 +           individual underlying  IP interfaces in an IPMP group,
      185 +           and must  instead be associated with the corresponding
      186 +           IPMP IP interface.
      187 +
      188 +           Note that ARP entries for IPMP data and test addresses
      189 +           are managed by the kernel, and thus cannot be changed.
