Phase 2 AARP Probe Time
This field allows the timeout for the AARP (Apple Address Resolution Protocol) address claim probes made at router startup time to be lengthened from the standard 2 seconds.
This may be necessary on AppleTalk networks which include WAN bridges. On these networks, it may take longer than 2 seconds for a node on the far side of a WAN bridge connection (logically still on the same AppleTalk network) to respond to an AARP address claim made by the router.
