Re: Please help in understanding.

Nadeem,

the reason for that logging message is that BB1 runs bridged IP over
Frame-Relay on DLCI 401. Your interface is not configured for bridging
and therefore filters ARP requests from BB1 sent over DLCI 401 (I
assume you are using INE topology). When you enable ARP debugging you
will notice those messages popping occasionally as BB1 periodically
sends ARP requests for the IP adddress 54.1.10.6 in ethernet frames
bridged over DLCI 401.

There is no ARP in the "Ethernet" sense on Frame-Relay interfaces,
althogh Inverse-ARP uses very similar frames structure. I would
recommend you going over RFC 2390 to get better understanding of
InverseARP functionality.

HTH,
