Description Gregory Lee Bartholomew 2019-09-11 19:56:31 UTC
Description of problem:

Documentation states that unit is in milliseconds:

$ man systemd.netdev | grep -A 1 ARPIntervalSec=
       ARPIntervalSec=
           Specifies the ARP link monitoring frequency in milliseconds. A value of 0 disables ARP monitoring. The default value is 0.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

$ rpm -q systemd
systemd-241-12.git1e19bcd.fc30.x86_64

Actual results:

# grep ARPIntervalSec= /etc/systemd/network/20-bn0.netdev 
ARPIntervalSec=5
# grep "ARP Polling Interval" /proc/net/bonding/bn0
ARP Polling Interval (ms): 5000

Additional info:

Very minor issue. Just thought I should let someone know that "milliseconds" should be replaced with "seconds" in the documentation.
