Private VLAN: proxy_arp_pvlan flag in mac-vlan interface in debian kernel
by thanigz2589 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#578VH)
I have a PVLAN domain created. Now wanted to have L3 communication between the Hosts in isolated and community vlans. To achieve this, enabled the proxy_arp_pvlanflag in the Primary VLAN interface.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/br100/proxy_arp_pvlan
This works fine and the hosts get the Primary VLAN interface MAC with Local Proxy ARP reply and the L3 communication between the hosts work properly
Now I have added redundant routers (with VRRP) and extended my PVLAN domain. So I want to get the VMAC in the Local Proxy ARP reply, so that the Hosts will get the gateway redundancy.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/br100.v257/proxy_arp_pvlan
I tried enabling the proxy_arp_pvlanflag in the mac-vlan sub interface created for VRRP. But the Local Proxy ARP functionality is not working and Hosts cannot communicate in Layer3.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/br100.v257/proxy_arp
I tried enabling the proxy_arpflag in the mac-vlan sub interface created for VRRP. Now I can see that it does both Proxy and Local proxy.
Is there anyway to get the mac-vlan MAC in only Local Proxy ARP reply (not for other subnets [proxy arp]) when redundancy protocol is configured?
