SonicWall sending too many ARP requests

Description

ISP temporarily disabling port due to receiving excessive ARP requests from SonicWall.

Resolution

In the SonicWall URL replace main with diag.

For example, if you have https://192.168.168.168/main.html, it would be https://192.168.168.168/diag.html.

Select Internal Settings.

Under Arp Settings please deselect Enable gratuitous ARP Compatibility Mode.

You also have the possibility here to specify a maximum amount of Gratuitous ARP's per minute with the editable section:

Never broadcast more than (100) Gratuitous ARPs in any 60 second period.
