How can I disable gratuitous arps globally for all interfaces?

[jefazo92]

Hi everyone,

Is the above question possible? Only command I found on the CLI manual seems to apply only to the ha interface:

config system ha

set gratuitous-arps disable

I need to disable gratuitous-arps on all interfaces.

Hi Jefazo

This above command actually enables/disables the gratuitous ARP (on HA failover) on all interfaces, not on HA interface. So that command is exactly what you are looking for.

@AEK the FortiOS CLI only gave this command for the HA interface. However, if it is possible to apply it to all the interfaces, should I just apoly the commands to every interface I am using?

[AEK]

Why do you think it applies it only for the HA interface?

[jefazo92]

Hi @AEK you are right in that the command is present in the shell. One must only do 

show full-config | grep gratuitous and it returns set gratuitous-arps enable.However, I am being unable to disable it. If I try to run set gratuitous-arps disable, it returns me Unknown action 0.

As AEK is saying there is one place to disable it, under system ha (which is different then the ha interface), you don't disable it under system interface.

Hi Jefazo

Did you first enter "config system ha":

config system ha
    set gratuitous-arps disable
end
