One of the Brians from IE describes the 'no arp frame-relay' command as
worthless in the class on demand video, and it is also noted as so in
the following forum link:

Djerk,

I used this command beside 'no frame-relay inverse arp' whenever I
needed to disable inverse arp, as I believed it worked in a way I said
to you. After your e-mail, I tried to find an explanation but I
couldn't. I have came accross some explanations in some forums about the
'no arp frame-relay' that says it is not related to inverse arp and I
can't reach an official cisco document or command reference to clarify
this issue.
I hope one of the instructors clarify this.
Sorry for the inonvenience & Best luck with your studies.

Kerim,

I tried that but to no avail, even a few reloads did not change
matters...
