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.
The following table describes the ARP Configuration Menu options.
