Mapping IP Addresses to Domain Host Names Using the CLI Commands

The following table summarizes the CLI commands for mapping domain

host names to IP addresses.

The following is an example of the CLI commands:

ARP

The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) converts IP addresses into physical

MAC addresses. ARP enables a host to communicate with other hosts when

their IP addresses are known.
To add an IP/MAC address mapping:

1 Click System > IP Addressing > ARP in the tree view to display the ARP:

Summary page.
The entries in the table are displayed.

2 Enter the parameters:

ARP Entry Age Out (1 - 40000000) — Enter the amount of time in

seconds that can pass between ARP requests for this address. After

this period, the entry is deleted from the table.

Clear ARP Table Entries — Select the type of ARP entries that are

cleared on all devices. The possible options are:

None — ARP entries are not cleared.

All — All ARP entries are cleared.
