Yes, there is.
Take a look of that, for 1200 bauds:
The meaning of /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ is explained (but no very well) in
Linux kernel source documentation (wich comes with Linux kernel sources)
# Parametros arp
# Maximo 7 arps
/bin/echo "7" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/arp_max_tries
# Los arp quedan 1 hora en memoria
/bin/echo "360000" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/arp_timeout
# Los arps requests se hacen cada 15 segundos (---> ARPS requests every
15S )
/bin/echo "1500" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/arp_res_time
# Se comprueba aproximadamente cada 3500 segundos.
/bin/echo "350000" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/arp_check_interval
