How to router prevent from ARP Strom?

 How to Router Prevent from ARP Strom?
Why some ARP entry will showing in ARP Table after respective time expires?


The extra time is the jitter added to each dynamic ARP entry when it is created. Random jitter is added to the ARP cache timeout in order to avoid synchronous expiration of the ARP entries, which might trigger an ARP storm. Jitter should be a random number between 0 seconds and 30 minutes, with a maximum jitter of 30 minutes.

Bursty Traffic Identification on Switch port

Traffic bursts can cause output drops even when the interface output rate is significantly lower than the maximum interface capacity. By default, the output rates in the show interface command are averaged over five minutes, which is not adequate to capture any short-lived bursts. It is best to average them over 30 seconds. In this case, you can use Wireshark in order to capture egress traffic with the Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN), which is analyzed in order to identify the bursts.
