ARP tables

Static ARP table

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a standard IP protocol that enables an IP Layer 3 Switch to
obtain the MAC address of another device’s interface when the Layer 3 Switch knows the IP
address of the interface. ARP is enabled by default and cannot be disabled.

The Static ARP Table in a Layer 3 Switch contains entries that are useful in cases where you want to
pre-configure an entry for a device that is not connected to the Layer 3 Switch, or you want to
prevent a particular entry from aging out. The software removes a dynamic entry from the ARP
cache if the ARP aging interval expires before the entry is refreshed. Static entries do not age out,
regardless of whether or not the device receives an ARP request from the device that has the
entry’s address.

snRtIpRarpIp
brcdIp.1.2.2.4.1.3
Syntax: IpAddress

Read-write

Shows the IP address for a RARP client.

snRtIpRarpRowStatus
brcdIp.1.2.2.4.1.4
Syntax: Integer

Read-write

Controls the management of the table rows. The values that can be
written are:

delete(3) – Delete the row

create(4) – Create a new row

modify(5) – Modify an existing row

If the row exists, then a SET with a value of create(4) returns a "bad
value" error. Deleted rows are removed from the table immediately.
The following values can be returned on reads:

noSuch(0) – No such row

invalid(1) – Row is inoperative

valid(2) – Row exists and is valid
