show arp ip ip-address [ vrf name ]
show arp [ dynamic | static ] [ summary ] [ vrf name ]

port
Specifies a valid port number.
ve ve-id
Specifies a virtual Ethernet (VE) interface.
vrf name
Specifies the name of the VRF instance. If this option is not used, details for the default VRF are shown in the output.
ip ip-address
Specifies a next-hop IP address.
dynamic
Displays all the dynamic ARP entries in the ARP table.
static
Displays all the static ARP entries in the ARP table.
summary

Output

The show arp command displays the following information:

Output field Description
Address Displays the IP address.
Mac-address Displays the MAC address or "UnResolved".
L3 Interface Displays the physical or VE interface.
L2 Interface Displays the Layer 2 interface. Supported values:
  • (Physical interface): "Eth slot / port "
  • (Port-channel): "Po"
  • (VxLAN): "Tu"
  • "PW": VPLS Pseudo-wire
  • "UnResolved"
Age In hh:mm:ss format, displays the time since the most recent renewal of a dynamic entry. For a static entry, displays "Never".
Vlan / BD Displays the VLAN or the BD for the ARP entry. VLANs are indicated with a (V) and BDs with (B)
Type Displays the ARP type. Supported values:
  • Dynamic
  • Static
  • MCT/EVPN: MCT peer ARPS or entries learned through the BGP-EVPN control plane
  • MCT/EVPN Sticky: MCT peer ARPs or entries learned through the BGP-EVPN control plane—with the "sticky" attribute (static or MY-IP at the originator).
  • LeakArp: An ARP entry leaked from another VRF.
  • PreArp: ARP triggered by other than the data traffic, for example, by the static route.
