Hi,

    I have ip dhcp snooping and ip arp inspection enabled:


ip arp inspection vlan 311-314
ip arp inspection validate src-mac dst-mac ip
ip dhcp snooping vlan 311-314
ip dhcp snooping

This appears to enforce that, if you are on one of those vlans and you don't have a dhcp assigned IP, you can't talk.

I am noticing however that if I do a ping scan of the subnets on those vlans, even tho the switch should know what IP's are assigned via is dhcp snooping database, it allows the arp's thru anyway for ip addresses not in it's database. This seems a bit silly, why not save the bandwidth and just drop outgoing arp on ports where the dhcp snooping db doesn't have an entry for it?

    Is there a cisco feature that would do this or am I being silly here?

Mike-
