Mesh network using HWMP - ARP resolving not working ?

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

Hello,

I am testing a wireless mesh network using HWMP. It works well but only at layer 2 level.
In fact, when I take a look at the /ip neighbors table I can only see the MAC addresses.

/ip neighbor print
#…INTERFACE…ADDRESS…MAC-ADDRESS…IDENTITY…VERSION…UNPACK
0…mesh1…00:15:6D:84:64:AD…MikroTik…4.10…none
1…mesh1…00:15:6D:65:7C:A0…MikroTik…4.10…none
2…mesh1…00:15:6D:65:7C:9F…MikroTik…4.10…none

I am able to do MAC pinging, but when I try to do IP pinging it does not work.
If I understand well there is a problem with ARP resolving. Is this right ?

What should I do to enable ARP resolving ?
I have already enabled it in the interface wireless configuration. Do I have to do anything else ?

Is there another method to solve this problem ?

Thanks for your help,
Javier
