6.21.1 Built-in Commands
The built-in commands listed in this section activate functions on the LM
managed device or devices being accessed through MIB Navigation.
arp:
Syntax: arp <options>
Description: The arp command provides access to the ARP
(Address Resolution Protocol) cache, enabling
you to view cache data, delete entries, or add a
static route. Super-User access is required to
delete an entry or add a static route.
Each ARP cache entry lists the network
interface that the device is connected to, the
device’s network address or IP address, the
device’s physical address or MAC address, and
the media type of connection to the device.
Media types are displayed as numbers, which
stand for the following states:
1 - Other
2 - Invalid entry (cannot ping device, timed out,
etc.)
3 - Dynamic route entry
4 - Static route entry (not subject to change)
