ARP Cache

Dear all,

We are testing two of our servers for mq series connectivity. The scenario
is, when one machine is shutting down it's services there are some scripts
that do a dns update, which removes the ip address and relates it to the ip
address of the other node on our dns server, and the update happens
properly, now comes the real issue:

Solaris 8 node does not clear the ipaddress from the arp cache

Solaris 10 node does not seem to check the cache; it directly looks up from
the dns

We are really puzzled. Can you put in some thought?

TIA
