Subject: RE: Isse in Arp cache timeout

Hi Nicolas,

I use below command and change this value for all interface.

for d in $(/bin/ls /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh); do
 echo 30000 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/$d/base_reachable_time_ms
done


~Regards
Rohit Agarwal

Did you change only the default value
(/proc/sys/net/ipv[4|6]/neigh/default/base_reachable_time_ms) or the value of
the interface (/proc/sys/net/ipv[4|6]/neigh/mynetdev/base_reachable_time_ms)?

In you change the default value, only interfaces that didn't have an IPv4 (or
an IPv6) address will "get" this new value, but all interfaces that already
have an IPv4 (or IPv6) address will keep the previous value, ie the one set in
their own entries.
