Re: Clear IP arp?

Indeed, I learned this and posted on it here a few months ago as well. When
you do "clear ip arp" it actually will look at every entry currently in the
table and send out an ARP for it, thereby refreshing the table. The only
way I know of to truly clear it is shut and no shut the interface.
