3.16 ARP Configuration
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is the protocol that converts IP address to the Ethernet MAC address. In local
area network, when the host or other network device send data to the other host or device, they must know the
network layer address (IP address) of each other. But only the IP address is not enough, because IP data packets runs
encapsulated by line protocol, so that the sender must know the receiver’s physical IP address and needs the IP
address and physical address mapping relationship. ARP protocol is used for this kind of requirement.
