[f-nsp] ARP question on the ICX

I scoured the documentation and tried some google-fu, but failed.

Does anyone know if the Brocade ICX product, in layer 3, will perform a
unicast or broadcast ARP request before the ARP entry ages?  I was told by
Cisco TAC that Cisco's IOS products do that, but I couldn't find any
indication that Brocade's ICX does that.

As you might be guessing, I need a MAC bridging table to not time out, so I
have the ARP timer less than the MAC bridge table aging time, in a hope that
the MAC bridging table doesn't empty.
