Static ARP
Static ARP entries are added to the ARP
cache when they are configured. Static ARP entries are useful in cases in which
you want to
preconfigure an entry for a device that is not connected to the Layer 3 switch,
or you want
to prevent a particular entry from aging out.
RUCKUS Layer 3 switches have a static ARP table, in addition to the regular ARP cache. Unlike static ARP entries, dynamic ARP entries are removed from the ARP cache if the ARP aging interval expires before the entry is refreshed. Static entries do not age out, regardless of whether the RUCKUS device receives an ARP request from the device that has the entry address.
Note: The maximum number of static ARP entries you
can configure depends on the FastIron release running on the device.
