PARPD(8)

NAME
parpd - a Proxy ARP Daemon

SYNOPSIS
parpd [-dfl] [-c file] [interface] [...]

DESCRIPTION
parpd is an implementation of the Proxy ARP Daemon described in RFC 1017. Upon receiving a request, parpd looks up the target address in the configuration file, parpd.conf(5). If parpd finds a match, it replies with the associated hardware address or the hardware address of the interface on which the reply came in.

In normal operation, parpd forks a copy of itself and runs in the background. Errors are reported via syslog(3).

OPTIONS

-c file
    Use this file for configuration instead of the default /usr/pkg/etc/parpd.conf.

-d  Run in debug mode, with all the output to stderr. This option implies the -f option.

-f  Run in the foreground.

-l  Log all requests to syslog.

FILES
/usr/pkg/etc/parpd.conf
