Subject: Re: "ip neigh show" not showing arp cache entries?

I retested it on an x86 machine and am seeing similar problems.

First, "arp" gives the arp table as expected:

root@...hoon-base-unit0:/tftpboot/cnp/0-0-5-0/0-0-5-0> arp -n
Address                  HWtype  HWaddress           Flags Mask

"ip neigh show" gives nothing, but if I search for specific addresses 
from the arp table listing they show up:

root@...hoon-base-unit0:/tftpboot/cnp/0-0-5-0/0-0-5-0> ip neigh show
root@...hoon-base-unit0:/tftpboot/cnp/0-0-5-0/0-0-5-0> ip neigh show 
172.24.0.9
172.24.0.9 dev bond0 lladdr 00:03:cc:51:06:5e DELAY
root@...hoon-base-unit0:/tftpboot/cnp/0-0-5-0/0-0-5-0> ip neigh show 
10.41.18.101
10.41.18.101 dev eth6 lladdr 00:0e:0c:5e:95:bd REACHABLE
root@...hoon-base-unit0:/tftpboot/cnp/0-0-5-0/0-0-5-0> ip neigh show 
172.24.137.0
172.24.137.0 dev bond0 lladdr 00:c0:8b:08:e4:88 REACHABLE


Is this expected behaviour?

Thanks,

Chris
