flags
additional information that may be displayed with the IP address. These include:
v If the simulated NIC is coupled to a virtual switch, local indicates that this
address was registered in a VSWITCH LAN, but is NOT currently registered
in the external network. This may indicate the external interface is
disconnected, or it may indicate a conflict for this particular address.
v Remote indicates that this address was registered automatically to represent
a source address found in a datagram. This entry is automatically removed
after the IP Timeout (IPTIMEOUT) has expired.
v Disabled indicates that this address was registered, but is no longer active.
This may happen when a second guest registers this same address with
options that permit IP Takeover.
v Manual indicates that this address was registered manually by an ARP cache
control command from the driver. This entry will be automatically removed
after the IP Timeout (IPTIMEOUT) has expired, or it may be removed earlier
by the driver.
