Syntax: [no] ip arp-age <[1...1440] | infinite>
Allows the ARP age to be set from 1 to 1440 minutes (24 hours). If the option “infinite”
is configured, the internal ARP age timeout is set to 99,999,999 seconds
(approximately 3.2 years). An arp-age value of 0 (zero) is stored in the
configuration file to indicate that “infinite” has been configured. This value also
displays with the show commands and in the menu display (Menu > Switch
Configuration > IP Config).
Default: 20 minutes.
