A simple question I hope....
I am thinking of making some infrastructure changes here that will require us to modify the way the router handles IP traffic. Specifically, we have a next hop route line in the router config that forwards traffic for any of the IP's in the subnet to x.x.x.x (our Firewall). We want the router to JUST do ARP requests for the individual IP's that it is routing traffic for instead. So, I want to confirm if I remove the HIGHLIGHTED BOLD LINE below in the config that the router would behave in this fashion, or must I make other entries in the config?
