Hi All,
 
in cisco web
 
... because when HSRP is enabled, Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) redirect messages are disabled. ...
 
this sentence is taken from :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_white_paper09186a00800a9829.shtml
 
and also :
 
... Proxy ARP breaks when use-bia is configured. A standby router cannot cover for the lost proxy ARP database of a failed router...

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094a91.shtml
 
but, when I configured HSRP like this one below :
 
ROUTER-A#show run int fa0/0
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 190 bytes
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 description LAN between ROUTER-A and ROUTER-B
 ip address 172.16.1.129 255.255.255.192
 speed auto
 half-duplex
 standby use-bia
 standby 1 ip 172.16.1.100
 standby 1 priority 105
end
 
ROUTER-A#show standby
FastEthernet0/0 - Group 1
  Local state is Active, priority 105, use bia
  Hellotime 3 sec, holdtime 10 sec
  Next hello sent in 1.262
  Virtual IP address is 172.16.1.100 configured
  Active router is local
  Standby router is 172.16.1.130 expires in 8.916
  Virtual mac address is 0007.ebae.d020
  5 state changes, last state change 00:12:08
 
The output of show ip int fa0/0 is like this :
 
ROUTER-A#show ip int fa0/0
FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up
  Internet address is 172.16.1.129 255.255.255.192
  Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255
  Address determined by configuration file
  MTU is 1500 bytes
  Helper address is not set
  Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled
  Multicast reserved groups joined: 224.0.0.5 224.0.0.6 224.0.0.2
  Outgoing access list is not set
  Inbound access list is not set
  Proxy ARP is enabled
  Security level is default
  Split horizon is enabled
  ICMP redirects are always sent
  ICMP unreachables are always sent
  ICMP mask replies are never sent
  IP fast switching is enabled
  IP fast switching on the same interface is disabled
  IP Flow switching is disabled
  IP Fast switching turbo vector
  IP multicast fast switching is enabled
  IP multicast distributed fast switching is disabled
  IP route-cache flags are Fast
  Router Discovery is disabled
  IP output packet accounting is disabled
  IP access violation accounting is disabled
  TCP/IP header compression is disabled
  RTP/IP header compression is disabled
  Probe proxy name replies are disabled
  Policy routing is disabled
  Network address translation is disabled
  WCCP Redirect outbound is disabled
  WCCP Redirect inbound is disabled
  WCCP Redirect exclude is disabled
  BGP Policy Mapping is disabled
 
Notice that Proxy ARP still enabled on Fa0/0 and ICMP redirects is still sent to Fa0/0
 
Am I missing something ?

thanks in advance
