Subject: Fwd: Question about arp caches
Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2016 03:16:50 -0500	[thread overview]

Sorry, seems I didn't make question clear. Maybe let me ask another 
question to help with this. So, how is the kernel check those staled arp 
entries? Or, what is the mechanism that the kernel uses to find the out 
of date entries?

Thanks,

Yisu
