Usage Guidelines

A Windows client on the network sends a detection packet with the source address 0.0.0.0 after obtaining an IP address. If the device also initiates an ARP probe with the source address 0.0.0.0, a conflict occurs. To prevent this conflict, you can run the access-user arp-detect delay command to set the delay in sending offline detection packets. Typically, detection initiated by a Windows client takes 10 seconds. Therefore, a delay longer than 10 seconds is recommended.

Precautions

This function takes effect only for users who go online after it is configured.

Delay after which the device sends the first ARP probe packet = Delay in sending offline detection packets + One-third of the handshake interval between the device and pre-connection or authorized users (configured using the authentication timer handshake-period command)

Example

# Set the delay for sending offline detection packets to 20 seconds.
