Describes the IP aging policy mechanism that tracks and removes unused IP addresses on an endpoint. This policy ensures efficient address management by monitoring ARP and neighbor solicitation responses within bridge domains.
The IP aging policy is a network management feature that identifies and ages out inactive IP addresses on an endpoint.
-
Tracks unused IP addresses using endpoint retention policies.
-
Sends ARP requests for IPv4 and neighbor solicitations for IPv6 at 75% of the local endpoint aging interval.
-
Ages out IP addresses when no response is received from the endpoint.
