In your message, you say that we drop the entries for no refresh, even if auto-refresh is enabled. That is suspicious ... This should only happen if the host does not reply to the re-arp from the auto-refresh, or due to the usage timer timing out. (Auto-refresh does not have anything to do with the usage timer.) TOM
