This week we talk about:
L2 isolation addition – Mikrotik introduced Local Proxy Arp – MTK responds to all ARP requests on an interface.
Using a switch to connect border/core services – eases transition, can be complicated with direct BGP peer flaps.
UBNT 60LR? Carrier Ethernet Drop
Cisco EEM for flapping a port
AutoIT for scripting
GPEN21 as FTTH CPE
OEO kit
FS switches for FTTH project

Hi Greg
The proxy ARP function is useful with none LAN aware interfaces e.g. ppp
If you enable proxy-arp on the router’s interface, on which the ppp connection is active, then the router will respond with its own MAC address to ARP requests for the ppp interface’s IP address
Hope that makes sense; had to reread it and adjust it several times :][
