Default Gratuitous ARP on Vista?
Hi Experts:

I have noticed some differences on Windows Vista regarding to the gratuitous
ARP: I have a virtual adapter, under Windows XP, when IP Helper function
"IpRenewAddress" is called for the virtual adapter, gratuitous ARP packet is
generated by the system; but under Windows Vista, this seems is not
happening. Does this make sense? Can this be explained?

Thanks in Advance!
