local.arp should be in the state directory, directly under fwdir; not in the
conf.
You must stop and restart the service to make it active.

I suspect the syntax of your local.arp to be wrong
#1 local.arp should be created in the $FWDIR\conf directory (where $FWDIR is
the dir that you installed FW-1 in eg: c:\winnt\fw\conf)
#2 The syntax is
111.222.333.444 AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
Please be sure to use colons instead of dashes. This is the #1 cause of
local.arp failures

Eric,
Thanks for the tips on local.arp files.
I have been having problems with the static arp entries on a NT FW-1 install
I am doing for a customer. I have created a local.arp file containing
entries for all the Internet Servers, but it doesn't seem to take affect. If
I manually add the arp entries in NT using the "arp -s" command, the
firewall starts working correctly, but these entries are deleted on reboot.
I think I may have been editing the arp file using notepad, so this may have
been my problem, however I have differing information concerning the
location of the local.arp file. The most common one is:
%SystemRoot%/fw/state/local.arp
Is this the correct location?
Thanks in advance,
Aaron.

When you create the local.arp don't forget to do it from dos edit. notepad
screws these up. and press tab between the ip and external mac.

Hi Flavio,
Why not trying to reverse the order of route entry in local.arp ?
like:
A.B.C.z pp-cc-gg-hh-kk

You also need a static route in the NT box directing packets back to the web
server. Use route add -p command:
route add -p A.B.C.z 10.10.11.x
Also, to enable your proxy arp entry you must stop and start the firewall

I have yet this configuration but it doesn't work. Is it mandatory to set
something on the router (static route)?
Thanks,
Flavio

Subject: [FW1] Local.arp file
Importance: High
I'm configuring a FW-1 4.0 (SP5) on a NT box 4.0 SP6a with 3 adapters:
* one is external A.B.C.0/24
* one is for DMZ 10.10.11.0/24
* one is for the internal LAN 10.10.10.0/24.
The DMZ and the internal LAN are private nets.
I've a web-server on DMZ (10.10.11.x) with aa-bb-cc-dd-ee MAC address.
This web server is known in internet with A.B.C.z address.
The external interface of the firewall is A.B.C.y with MAC pp-cc-gg-hh-kk
To reach the webserver i put in the local.arp file the following line:
pp-cc-gg-hh-kk A.B.C.z
It doesn't work! Anyone one knows if there's a bug in the FW-1 proxy arp?
Or maybe I made a mistake?
Thanks in advance,
Flavio
