- Our ciscos are set to the factory default of 4 hours for the ARP cache
- time-to-live value. Why is it set so high and is there any reason I shouldn't
- set it to, say, 15 minutes? We make a lot of changes to our nets and it seems
- that a lot of bad data sits around for an awful long time when it is set to
- 4 hours, no?
