If the unit then gets no response, it will drop that connection. 3.7.2 ARP Cache timeout in s Whenever the unit communicates with another device on the network, it will add an entry into its ARP table. The ARP Cache timeout option allows you to define how many seconds (1-600) the unit will wait before timing out this table. 3.8 Security Settings Note: You can change these settings via Telnet or serial connections only, not on the WebManager.
