Thanks, Priscilla. I did some testing yesterday and discovered the same
two-minute timeout. however, I also have some Solaris boxes that will
be affected by this and Sasa Milic mentioned that these might retain the
old ARP entries. If so, we'll just have to manually clear the ARP
caches. It
the router from that network, that might be an option
as
well.

I just tried this and it appears that the behavior is a little different
on routed virtual interfaces on the 6513. I'm running 12.1(11) IOS and

I don't think it's quite right that the routers send their ARP broadcast
replies when you simply do a shut/no shut. From the testing I have doen,
they don't even seem to do this if you physically disable and enable the

Can you stand 2 minutes of downtime? What are these devices on the subnet?
If they are Windows machines, you may not have a problem. Just take 2
minutes to make your change and the entry for the default gateway will be
gone from the devices' ARP cache! The timeout for ARP entries for Windows is
