The Server Switch supports dynamic ARP so that any IP host that connects to an Ethernet gateway port
may see or detect all the other connected IP and IPoIB hosts.
An ARP table contains the available ARP records in the gateway. An ARP record may be dynamically
learned or statically created. In most cases, you can rely upon d ynamic ARP addressing. Dynamic ARP
records may be deleted from the table after a period of time, o r updated, if a host address-change occurs.
Examples SFS-7000P(config)# arp ethernet 10.2.0.50 00:30:48:23:A9:0A 4/1
