How does busybox come into play with this?

The arp table is supposedly maintained by the kernel, no?

Please describe what *exact* busybox commands are involved to reproduce
this issue.

thanks,

This sounds like a duplicate of bug 154 and 356 or vice versa.

The Linux kernel does ARP.  All busybox has is an arp ping command.  Is
that what you're referring to?  If so, a reproduction sequence would be
nice...

This sounded like a kernel problem and nothing to do with busybox, then the
submitter vanished.
