Theo, looks like a no-go on the SNMP approach. According to cisco, there is
no SNMP setting that will cause the PIX to clear it's arp cache. They said
there's only 3 ways the arp cache will clear on a PIX:
1) Reboot the PIX
2) Let arp entries expire as per the arp timeout setting (and if set to less
than 60 seconds, the pix will loose packets)
3) Manually type a "clear arp" command on the PIX
Greaaaat. So I am left with cobbling together an expect script that will let
each machine in the cluster log into the pix and do a clear arp command.
Yucky Yucky solution, but I can't think of anything else. I hate having
cleartext password to my pix inside a script. Anyone have any other
thoughts?
