Add proxy arp entries on R80.20 VSX

[HS]

Hi,

we will migrate security gateway from R77.30 to R80.20 in VSX. 
We have some proxy arp entries on our gateway but in R80.20 there don't use "/opt/CPsuite-R77/fw1/CTX/CTX00001/conf/local.arp" file. 

How we add the entries without the local.arp file? Now it is kernel based .

Hello HS,

ther's a simple way to add a proxy arp entry to a gateway without configuring via the GAiA portal/ clish or using local.arp

Add a host object with your external IP to your rulebase and configure automatic NAT (static). As NAT-IP use the same external IP, add the relevant gateway and do a policy install. With this host object the gateway adds an proxy arp entry to the the gateway with the correct MAC.

We use this with loadsharing bond and active/passive bond and VSX. It works too with vMAC.
