ASR router shows as a hop in traceroute, but shouldn't

vgrig
Level 1
Level 1

We installed and ASR1001-X to handle one of our dedicated lines and it's LAN interface somehow shows up as a hop to any hosts on that VLAN.
ASR1001-X is connected to cat 6500 switches and if i clear arp on 6500 ASR1001-X hop disappears from traceroute, but is back after a while.
How to get rid of it? Traceroutes and MAC/ARP outputs are below.
ASR has "ip arp proxy disable" globally. 6500 vlan interfaces have "no ip proxy-arp" configured.
ASR is running OTV passing some vlans to remote site - not sure it's relevant though. No NAT - everything is private IP routing.

Thank you
V

If i clear arp on 6500s, traceroute is as it should be for a while:

Hello,

I faintly remember there also being a 'ip local-proxy-arp' command. Can you try and configure 'no ip local proxy-arp' on the 6500 and check if that makes a difference ?

Yes, there is 'ip local-proxy-arp' interface config command, but that seems to be defaulted to "no" - i entered "no ip local-proxy-arp", but it doesn't show up under interface config afterwards.

Hello,

I think it is disabled by default anyway.

Either way, on the ASR there is the 'arp learning disable' command, you could configure that and see if that resolves the issue.

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/asr9000/software/addr_serv/command/reference/b-ipaddr-cr-asr9k/b-ipaddr-cr-asr9k_chapter_010.html#wp5943023100

but that would disable it on ASR, isn't it? ASR talks to local subnet directly, not extra hops - it's 6500 that's having a problem doing that. and 6500 doesn't have arp leaning command.

Hello

Clearing arp will only cause the router to relearn and possibly broadcast for its ip/mac match, and why do you say it shouldn't show up in traceroute?

Is this interface in the path to the prefix your tracing -Are you advertising this interface in a routing protocol, if so does this interface need to advertise routing updates can it be passive?

It looks like it hitting the svi of vlan 119 and then its default-gateway of that same vlan, would this be correct?

192.168.120.3also has a vlan 119 interface and it's a default gateway for all 192.168.119.x hosts - including asr router. look at : "sh ip route 192.168.119.x" output above - 6500 is drectly connected to that network. it shouldn't get any hops to hosts on that network.

192.168.119.1 is default gateway and it's 6500s hsrp address.
