Hi all,  
 
Wondering if someone can answer the following. 
1) What causes a router to ping an address?  Looking at a traffic monitor built 
into our FW it shows the WAN port ip address of our router pinging various 
internet addresses.  Users on all subnets are set with a gateway address and 
proxy arp is on.  Does the router ping to determine the destination address is 
alive before it responds to an arp?
 
thanks in advance
