Parameters (A)
or
ARP Entry (B)
Parameters (A)
Allows you to configure general Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache parameters.
Complete Entry Timeout (minutes)
– Length of time that a complete entry remains in
the ARP Table before removal. A complete entry is one for which there is a MAC address
and a node has responded to the ARP request. Range = 1–200,000 minutes (Default =
20).
Incomplete Entry Timeout (minutes)
– Length of time in minutes that an incomplete
entry remains in the ARP table before being removed. (An incomplete entry is an entry
without a MAC address.) This is also the amount of time that a packet will remain in the
system while waiting for address resolution. Range = 1–255 minutes (Default = 3).
NOTE: If you have made changes to this screen, you must do a card reset for the
changes to be in effect.
ARP Entry (Add ARP Entry) (B)
Allows you to add entries into the ARP cache.
Item
– Enter 0 (zero) to add a new record.
IP Address

nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
format.
MAC Address

xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx
format.
VNID
– Enter a VNID ID between 2–4000 (Default = None). You must make an entry in
this field.
Trailer
– Yes/No (Default = No).
Perm
– Yes/No (Default = No). If you select Yes for Permanent and No for Proxy, the ARP
entry will be saved in NVRAM (up to 32 entries). These are loaded when the card resets.

– 0–Dynamic. (This field is read-only).
NOTE: For the Add ARP Entry (B) screen, all other information entered is not stored in
the non-volatile memory and will be lost when you reset the card.
