I'm installing Checkpoint Firewall on a Sun box and in order to do NAT(Network Address Translation) I need to configure proxy arps? How would I do this? I have already created my static routes file.
thanks in advance
ether in the form aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff this will set up a static ARP entry for hostname that will respond to ARP requests for hostname. You will need to add these to a startup script in /etc/rc2.d along with your routing statements.
Yes the way init works it only executes scripts starting with uppercase S in the rc directories on boot and starting with K on shutdown. The number determines the order of running. S99arp would work fine - it has to run after the IP networking has been started S72inet.
PS to disable scripts in the rc directories you will commonly see the initial S replaced with a lowercase s
