determing the time a switch stores forwarding-entries

[Matthias Vallentin <matthias.vallentin () globalways net>]

hi there,

how can i efficiently determine/measure the time a switch holds its
forwarding entries (ARP). The switch is a black box, i don't have any
information about it, so a vendor-based look-up might fail.

any suggestions?

thanks in advance,

Matthias Vallentin
