Does Traffic Server refresh entries in its host database after a certain period of time if they have not been used?
By default, the Traffic Server host database observes the time-to-live (ttl) values set by name servers. You can reconfigure Traffic Server to ignore the ttl set by name servers and use a specific Traffic Server setting instead. Alternatively, you can configure Traffic Server to compare the ttl value set by the name server with the ttl value set by Traffic Server, and then use either the lower or the higher value.
