    Explanation: Here is an example:
    Router(config)#route-map Engineers permit 20
    Router(config-route-map)#match ip address 2
    Router(config-route-map)#set interface Ethernet1
    Here, instead of specifying a next-hop, it specifies that any packets matching this rule will be
    forwarded directly out the interface Ethernet1. This means that either the destination device must
    be on this segment, or there must be a router configured with Proxy ARP that can forward the
    packet to the ultimate destination.

    1. yes says:

      You are probably correct, but it does say enable proxy arp “on the exiting interface”, which would not be relevant to improve reachability.

      Typical cisco gotcha question.

    Let’s think the opposite way – what is wrong.
    D doesn’t make sense as packets denied by the policy are forwarded according to RIB.
    A is wrong as proxy-arp may help on the next-hop router and not on “the router”.
    Hence B&C.
    Werid.
