3597.0. "What type of ARPing does a HUB do for [6]Downline Upgrade" by CSC32::YOUNGWIRTH () Thu Jun 06 1996 12:28

    
    	What type of ARP does the DH900 do when choosing [6]  Downline
    Upgrade from the HUbs menu?? Since it has a gateway setup does it do a
    General arp or a direct arp to the gateway or both?? From a trace it
    appears that it does a general arp but never a direct arp to the
    gateway. Or if they setup a rtr for proxy arp then it works.
    (this happens when the hub and the system we are dll from are in
    different networks)
    
    
    Thank You
    Mark

    If the load host is within the subnet the 900 linecards should
    arp for the load host directly.  If the load host is out of the
    subnet the linecard should arp for the gateway.
