Hi,
Should an arp entry be flushed if you are
constantly talking to the hardware pointed to in the arp table?
I have a problem where my connection is
experiencing a 30-45 second pause every 30 minutes, this pause effectively cuts
off an https connection we have running for a specific application. It
seems as though every 30 minutes there is an arp request to the gateway at our
ISP which is causing the problem, I assume this is because the arp table is
being flushed every 30 minutes. I have tried to fix the problem (won't
know if it is successful until tomorrow) by adding a manual entry to the arp
table with 'arp -s'. I would have thought that if you had talked to the
gateway recently, then the arp entry would not be flushed, is this
correct?
Regards,
Justin.
