Command History

ReleaseModification
11.2 GS

This command was introduced to support the Cisco 12012 Gigabit Switch Router.

11.1 CC

Multiple platform support was added.

Usage Guidelines

When you issue this command, entries in the adjacency table that resides on the route processor are removed and then repopulated. During repopulation, Layer 2 next hop information is reevaluated.

With Distributed CEF (dCEF) mode, the adjacency tables that reside on line cards are always synchronized to the adjacency table that resides on the route processor. Therefore, clearing the adjacency table on the route processor using the clear adjacency command also clears the adjacency tables on the line cards; all changes are propagated to the line cards.

Examples

The following example clears the adjacency table:
