Jason gave the answer I was looking for: Local Area Mobility. On the interface to which the device is connected add the following two lines:
ip proxy-arp ip mobile arp Then add: ip route a.b.c.d 255.255.255.255 (interface) Where a.b.c.d is the IP address of the device. This creates a /32 host route in the routing table. Redistribute this into your routing protocol and you have local and remote connectivity to this single host even though it is not on the correct LAN subnet.
