Spirent TestCenter: Why are we seeing ARP reply messages sent even if the "Control Plane" option is disabled for StreamBlock?

Environment/Versions
  • Spirent TestCenter
  • ARP/ND
  • Ping
Answer
  • The "Control Plane" option essentially only controls whether or not the stream block responds to ping as it configures interfaces into the stack based on the stream block configuration.
  • The stream block will always respond to ARP messages regardless of the "Control Plane" option.
