NXOS does not show arp entry for it's own IP addresses

Hello,

 

The scenario is as follows: NXOS 9.3.7 I am converting some code that manages a network to support NX-OS.

 

config:

 

vlan 133

int vlan 133

ip address 192.168.1.1/29

 

show ip arp vlan 133 shows:

 

IP ARP Table
Total number of entries: 5
Address Age MAC Address Interface Flags
192.168.1.2 00:01:43 0cc4.xxxx.xxxx Vlan133

 

IOS and a lot of other networking operating systems would've also shown:

 

Internet 192.168.1.1 - 000f.f8a0.xxxx ARPA vlan 133

 

I don't really care what it does in the CLI because nobody looks at this in the CLI, the problem this is causing me is that I can no longer figure out which of the IPs on the VLAN belong to the router itself (instead of hosts connected to the router). I need an SNMP OID I can pull that includes the router's own ARP information.

 

I have also confirmed that RFC1213-MIB::ipNetToMediaPhysAddress.ifIndex..of..vlan..133 only shows host/client ARP and not the router's SELF entry.

 

How do I find the router's SELF entry for VLAN 133 via SNMP?? This is critical.

Hi @snmpguy500 

 

Not sure why you are looking in ARP table if what you are interested in are the IP addresses configured on the switch.

You can simply use "show ip interface brief vrf all" and you have it.

 

Stay safe,
