Subject: Re: [RFC] arp announce, arp_proxy and windows ip conflict verification

What IOS is irrelevant to this discussion.
Especially when I don't see the "ip proxy-arp" command.

Having two networks:
10.0.0.0/24 physical segment
10.0.1.0/24 physical segment

It is correct for proxy arp to answer to for 10.0.0.66
when it is plugged into the 10.0.1.0/24 network.

Because in that case 10.0.0.66 is on the wrong subnet, and your
network is misconfigured.
