RE: Static route and exiting interface

When you specify a broadcast interface as part of a static route in IOS, you
force the router to ARP for every non-local destination in that direction.
Thus, the upstream router must support proxy arp and must itself have a
route to the destination...

Subject: Static route and exiting interface

Hi,

I have a problem to add a static route via exiting interface. If i give it
next hop ip, it will work. Why?
(1) Use next hop ip address:
...
ip route 209.85.173.104 255.255.255.255 24.239.17.25
..

VanVPN#ping 209.85.173.104

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 209.85.173.104, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!

(2) Use local exiting interface:
...
ip route 209.85.173.104 255.255.255.255 f0/0
..

VanVPN#ping 209.85.173.104

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 209.85.173.104, timeout is 2 seconds:
.....

Troubleshooting:

(1) when use exiting interface, i see in arp as below.

VanVPNr# sh ip arp
Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface
...

Internet 209.85.173.104 0 Incomplete ARPA
Internet 24.239.17.11 - 0019.0618.6fb0 ARPA FastEthernet0/0
Internet 24.239.17.25 228 00a0.8ea5.2ea0 ARPA FastEthernet0/0

Please help what i did wrong!

Thanks,

Josh
