Configuring ARP Wait
To set the time, in seconds, to wait for an ARP resolution, use the arp wait
command. The wait time is the number of seconds the CSS waits for an ARP
resolution in response to an ARP request to the network. Enter an integer from
5 to 30 seconds. The default is 5.
For example:
(config)# arp wait 15
To restore the default wait time of 5 seconds, enter:
(config)# no arp wait
Updating ARP Parameters
To update the file containing hosts reachable through ARP, use the update arp
command. This command is available only in SuperUser mode.
For example:
# update arp file
Clearing ARP Parameters
The CSS enables you to clear ARP parameters for the ARP file or ARP cache. To
clear the file that contains known hosts reachable through ARP, use the clear arp
file command. This command is available only in SuperUser mode.
For example:
# clear arp file
