ENTRY Object Type
Figure 8-2 shows the object hierarchy for the TCP6SAM process.
Note that there is a pound sign (#) in front of the SUBNET and ROUTE objects for
TCP6SAM and there is no intermediate monitor (TCP6MON) object. (See SCF
Commands for TCP6MAN Compared to SCF Commands for TCP6SAM on page 8-1.)
ENTRY Object Type
In an IPv4 environment, the ENTRY object lets you view the Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP) table, which maps physical (MAC) addresses to IP addresses. In an
IPv6 environment, the ENTRY object lets you view the Neighbor Discovery (ND)
cache, which performs the identical function for the IPv6 protocol.
In an IPv4 environment, you can use an SCF ADD command to add an ENTRY object
explicitly. The ENTRY object name can have at most seven alphanumeric characters,
the first two of which must be EA. The TCP/IP process can also add ENTRY objects
dynamically. In this case, the TCP/IP process generates names for these objects. Note
that all entries in the Neighbor Discovery cache are added and named dynamically.
