I used to  believe, in earlier versions, that it  would delete interface
cards for
interfaces that were no longer configured. I first noticed it no longer did
this
in 7.1.1. I thought maybe I only imagined that it ever worked that way.  It
appears that it is now necessary to manually delete those interfaces. I
would suspect that it might be a side-effect of all the code changes
required
to support of RFI. Have you noticed whether they fall under the 'node down
delete interval'? I have not checked. I just make it a policy to manually
delete them when the Change Control notification (smile) tells me that
an interface has been deconfigured.

Cordially,

I have observed this phenomena using v7.1.3 under Solaris 2.8. The device
in question is a Cisco 6509 switch and the subnets were VLANs that were
removed. Demand poll seemed to have no effect on these "unreachable"
subnets. I have been suspicious of it but had not come to any conclusion. I
think there is something there, just can't put my finger on it.
