**Table 1** Description of the display arp packet statistics command output
Item	Description
ARP Pkt Received	Number of the received ARP packets.
ARP Received In Message-cache	Number of ARP packets received within each second when a switch encapsulates multiple ARP request packets into one packet.
ARP-Miss Msg Received	Total number of ARP Miss messages triggered by ARP Miss packets sent to the CPU.
ARP Learnt Count	Times of ARP learning.
ARP Pkt Discard For Limit	Number of ARP packets discarded due to the ARP entry limit. To configure the maximum number of dynamic ARP entries that an interface can learn, run the arp-limit command.
ARP Pkt Discard For SpeedLimit	Number of ARP packets discarded when the number of ARP packets from a specified source IP address exceeds the limit. To configure a rate limit for ARP packets based on the source IP address, run the arp speed-limit source-ip command.
ARP Pkt Discard For Proxy Suppress	Number of packets discarded for the speed limit.
ARP Pkt Discard For Other	Number of the packets discarded due to other causes.
ARP-Miss Msg Discard For SpeedLimit	Number of ARP Miss messages discarded when the number of ARP Miss messages triggered by IP packets from a specified source IP address exceeds the limit.
ARP Discard In Message-cache For SpeedLimit	Number of ARP packets discarded due to software rate limit when a switch encapsulates multiple ARP request packets into one packet. To configure a rate limit for ARP Miss messages based on the source IP address, run the arp-miss speed-limit source-ip command.
