Adds a static entry to the ARP table
No static ARP entries are made
This command allows you to place a static entry in the ARP table,
which is a dynamic table that
maps
IP addresses to the corresponding MAC
(hardware) addresses. The ip-address and
mac-address are simply the IP address and
the hardware address for the entry you wish to create. The
type argument is the encapsulation type
(arpa for Ethernet, smds for
SMDS, snap for FDDI and token ring, etc.). The
optional alias keyword tells the router to respond
to ARP requests as if it were the requested device itself; i.e., the
router responds to an ARP request for an aliased device with its own
IP address.
