Don't touch proxy ARP, the chances of that causing a performance problem are virtually nil, and if the network is being routed to you it won't do anything. In nearly all cases, missing proxy ARP when you require it will make your network not function at all. Some routers may behave slightly differently and cache ARP based on IP frames received, which could cause strange things to happen, including performance problems amongst other possibilities. That's very, very unusual though. Normally if an IP doesn't answer on ARP when it's needed, nothing at all will work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
