Configuring RIP
N o t e
ICMP Host Unreachable Message for Undeliverable ARPs.
If the
routing switch receives an ARP request packet that it is unable to deliver to
the final destination because of the ARP timeout and no ARP response is
received (the routing switch knows of no route to the destination address),
the routing switch sends an ICMP Host Unreachable message to the source.
