NOTE: The 10,000 maximum on devices using the Management IV module assumes you are using the flash
card to store and load the startup-config file. If you plan to store and load the startup-config file on the flash
memory module instead, you can configure up to 4,096 entries in the static ARP table. For information about
saving and loading the startup-config file using the flash module, see "Loading the Startup-Config File from a
PCMCIA Flash Card During System Load" on page 5-30.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
To modify a table size using the Web management interface:
1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
panel is displayed.
2. Select the Max-Parameter link to display the Configure System Parameter Maximum Value table. This table
lists the settings and valid ranges for all the configurable table sizes on the device.
3. Click the Modify button next to the ip-static-arp row.
4. Enter the new value for the cache size. The value you enter specifies the maximum number of entries the
cache can hold.
5. Click Apply to save the changes to the device's running-config.
6. Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog. Select Yes when prompted to save the configuration change
to the startup-config file on the device's flash memory.
7. Click on the plus sign next to Command in the tree view to list the command options.
8. Select the Reload link and select Yes when the Web management interface asks you whether you really want
to reload the software. Changes to cache and table sizes do not take effect until you reload the software.
