///      protocols (e.g. ARP, NDP). These protocols will attempt to reconfirm
///      reachability with the device once its `state` becomes
///      [`EntryState.stale`].
///   2. Static entries are explicitly added by a user with
///      [`Controller.AddStaticEntry`] and have no expiration. Their `state` is
///      always [`EntryState.static`].
