3. Click the Create button (if necessary) to launch the New WLAN screen. Use the New WLAN

screen to define the properties of a new WLAN that would display and be selectable within the

6. Refer to the Proxy-ARP Disable field to enable/disable Proxy AP support. Proxy ARP is disabled

by default.

When enabled, any system on the wireless network that ARPs for the IP address of an

associated MU receives an ARP reply from the access point stating the requesting system

should be sending packets destined for the MU to access point instead. In turn, the access

point forwards the requesting packets to the target MU. Through this process, the access

point can pass ARP requests in both directions, making an MU appear to be connected to

a public network even though it’s on a private network, hidden behind the access point.

Select the following options as required:

c. Select Dynamic for the access point to respond to an ARP request for its MU IP addresses

using an ARP response and drop the original ARP request packet.
