This feature allows you to bypass the previously hard-coded ARP request throttling time default (10 seconds per SPU for each IP address) and set the time to a greater value (10 through 100 seconds). Setting the throttling time to a greater value reduces the high utilization of the Routing Engine, allowing it to work more efficiently. You can configure the ARP request throttling time using the set forwarding-options next-hop arp-throttle <seconds> command.
