Hello, It seems that: 1) if I assign an IP address to an interface 2) get an arp mapping via this interface 3) remove the IP address from the interface arp fails to remove this arp entry when arp -d is used > lab# ifconfig rl0 192.168.254.30 > lab# ping 192.168.254.254 > PING 192.168.254.254 (192.168.254.254): 56 data bytes > 64 bytes from 192.168.254.254: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.427 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.254.254: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.434 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.254.254: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.442 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.254.254: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.467 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.254.254: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.445 ms > ^C > --- 192.168.254.254 ping statistics --- > 5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0.0% packet loss > round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.427/0.443/0.467/0.014 ms > lab# arp 192.168.254.254 > ?
