C Commands

This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS Layer 3 interfaces commands that begin with C.

clear ip arp

To clear the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) information, use the clear ip arp command.

clear ip arp [ip-addr | ethernet slot/port[.sub_if] | loopback if_number | port-channel number[.sub_if_number]] [force-delete | statistics] [vrf vrf-name | all | default | management]

Syntax Description

ip-addr

(Optional) IPv4 source address. The format is x.x.x.x.

ethernet slot/port

(Optional) Specifies the Ethernet interface and the slot number and port number. The slot number is from 1 to 255, and the port number is from 1 to 128.
