Configuring ARP 
Settings

The

 Address Resolution Protocol

 (ARP) converts IP addresses into physical 

addresses, and maps the IP address to a MAC address. ARP allows a host 
to communicate with other hosts when only the IP address of its 
neighbors is known.

This section includes the following sections:
