Hi Wim,

I assume that 192.168.1.254 does not exist on your network, but the DHCP
server is wrongly configured to point all work stations default gateway to
that IP? If so, you can use secondary address of 192.168.1.254 on your
router, in addition to the primary IP 192.168.1.3.

interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0 secondary
 ip address 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0

You can also configure HSRP, VRRP, with 192.168.1.254 as the virtual IP (you
do not need any other router as standby).

Please let me know if you find a better solution.

Cheers,
 
Huan

Hi,

In one the labs of internetwork expert you have the following question

Suppose a consultant configures a DHCP server and misconfigures the default
gateway ( ex 192.168.1.254 ) . Configure your router with IP address
192.168.1.3 to answer on ARP requests for 192.168.1.254 .

I first thought to configure proxy-arp but this is for different subnets,
does anybody have an idea ?

Wim
