Hi.  We are running Netview v6 on AIX.  We just did a test by doing a
test->demand poll on a couple of routers and watched as their CPU utilization
went to the high 90's and sometimes 100%.  It appeared to be the worst during
the "Getting ARP table data for discovery of secondary interfaces" phase (or
something close to that verbage).  

Can we prevent this ARP cache dumping?  If we can, will it prevent discovery
of new devices?

Also, where/how may I search the archives of this list?

Thanks for any help!
