ARP Configuration
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is the TCP/IP protocol that resides within the Internet layer.
ARP resolves a physical address from an IP address. ARP queries machines on the local network
for their physical addresses. ARP also maintains IP to physical address pairs in its cache memory. In
any IP communication, the ARP cache is consulted to see if the IP address of the computer or the
router is present in the ARP cache. Then the corresponding physical address is used to send a
packet.
