ARP Table In an Ethernet, the MAC addresses of two hosts must be available for the two hosts
to communicate with each other. Each host in an Ethernet maintains an IP
address-to-MAC address mapping table known as ARP mapping table, as illustrated
in Figure 60. An entry of an ARP mapping table contains the IP address and the MAC
address of a host recently communicating with the local host.
