Hi All!

What do I have to do to show the ARP cache on an AIX server? I read
through the man pages
and tried all the options, but the best I could get is a list of
"buckets" (arp -a) - see below.

My unix experience is on Sun and the command to show the ARP cache is
either
arp -a or netstat -p.

I've gone blind searching google.

Help!

Best regards,
Tom.......

arp -a on AIX (both 4.3 and 5.1):
bucket: 0 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 1 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 2 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 3 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 4 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 5 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 6 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 7 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 8 contains: 1 entries
bucket: 9 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 10 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 11 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 12 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 13 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 14 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 15 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 16 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 17 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 18 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 19 contains: 1 entries
bucket: 20 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 21 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 22 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 23 contains: 0 entries
bucket: 24 contains: 0 entries

There are 2 entries in the arp table.
