Re: [j-nsp] proxy-arp on EVPN irb

As I recall, proxy-arp behavior is proven by looking in the local host arp cache and finding entries for foreign ip’s mapped to the default gateway’s mac address.  If that is still occurring, then it would seem that proxy arp functionality is still working and you can move on to tshooting something beyond that… like what is the upstream def gw/evpn pe doing with those packets
