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. Eric
