-  * Due to it's nature, a device defined with a static ARP binding (DHCP Reservation/Static Arp option) will appear in the device list as connected even if it's not switched on or not present. It is very hard to determine if such a device is really up because you might not know on which protocol and port it is listeningping and traceroute response may have been disabled. Luckily there are very few use cases for static ARP binding. Caution is advised.\\+  * Due to it's nature, a device defined with a static ARP binding (DHCP Reservation/Static Arp option) will appear in the device list as connected even if it's not switched on or not present.
