Changes in systemd-networkd:
- * A new IPv4ProxyARPAddress= setting has been added to the [Network]
- section of .network files. It is the IPv4 counterpart to
- IPv6ProxyNDPAddress= and allows manual entries to be added to the
- kernel's IPv4 neighbor proxy table. The setting implies
- IPv4ProxyARP=yes but has no effect if IPv4ProxyARP= has been set to
- false. This mirrors the behavior of IPv6ProxyNDPAddress=.
+ * The IPv6ProxyNDPAddress= setting in the [Network] section of .network
+ files has been renamed to ProxyNeighbor=. The setting can now also be
+ used to add IPv4 addresses to the kernel's IPv4 neighbor proxy table.
