Not quite flush, but man arp shows the -d (delete) option.

Shouldn't be an issue.

I'm running a Linux 8.0 box with IP chains as my firewall. I was
wondering if there was a command I can run to clear the ARP cache
without having to reboot the box. I'm replaceing a main gateway this
box points to and I want to force it to recognize the new MAC address.

Thanks,

Miles
