CLEAR IP ARP_CACHE
Use the CLEAR IP ARP_CACHE command to clear the Address Resolution
Protocol table when ring configuration changes are made. The ARP table entries
time out if not updated within 20 minutes.
You should clear the ARP table if you either:
■
Change a station's IP configuration (for example, interfaces, IP address)
■
Experience difficulty in communicating with a station
After the table is cleared, the DMM relearns all stations' IP-to-MAC addresses
when the next IP-based operation is established. The ARP table is then rebuilt
with the new information.
Format
Example
The following command clears the DMM ARP cache:
CB5000> clear ip arp_cache
ARP Cache Flushed.
