In certain configurations, when node neighbor discovery is enabled [1], the neighbor table is populated with PERMANENT entries. If the agent is then configured to not use neighbor discovery, those entries are left behind, without being garbage collected. This can cause connectivity issues across nodes, where it's more likely to happen in the same L2 network, if a new node reuses an IP address from a previous node and its MAC address changes. In a L3 network it is unlikely to happen since the ARP entry will be associated with a L3 router and it is less likely to change its MAC address. [1] ``` n.enableNeighDiscovery = n.nodeConfig.EnableIPv4 && (option.Config.EnableNodePort || (n.nodeConfig.EnableIPSec && option.Config.Tunnel == option.TunnelDisabled)) ``` Signed-off-by: André Martins <andre@cilium.io>
