Hi everyone, |

I am trying to setup some virtual IP's on a couple of servers and keep |
| 4 |
running into trouble with ARP responses. What I need to do is apply an |
| 5 |
ip alias to the loopback interface and disable arp responses on this |
| 6 |
interface. I have done this a couple of different ways but with the same |
| 7 |
result...doesn't work =/ |
| 8 |
|

here is what I have done: |
| 10 |
# ifconfig lo:1 10.10.10.116 netmask 255.255.255.255 |
| 11 |
# ifconfig lo:1 -arp |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
When that didn;t work I tried the iproute2 path and did: |
| 14 |
# ip link set lo:1 arp off |
| 15 |
# ifconfig lo:1 |
| 16 |
lo:1 Link encap:Local Loopback |
| 17 |
inet addr:10.1.10.116 Mask:255.255.255.255 |
| 18 |
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING NOARP MTU:16436 Metric:1 |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Everything appears to be set right, but it is still responding to arp |
| 21 |
requests: |
| 22 |
# tcpdump -n | grep arp |
| 23 |
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode |
| 24 |
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes |
| 25 |
21:25:18.686611 arp who-has 10.1.10.116 tell 10.1.10.29 |
| 26 |
21:25:18.686647 arp reply 10.1.10.116 is-at 00:02:b3:e9:41:3f |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |

This really can't be that difficult of a task, but I have to be doing |
| 30 |
something wrong here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |
