3/13 ARP protocol ARP maps any � X-window TELNET BOOTP Others network level SMTP NNTP SNMP HTTP TFTP DNS NFS FTP address (such as IP address) to its corresponding data TCP UDP link address (such as Ethernet address) IP ICMP IGMP ARP RARP � RFC 826 - Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol (STD0037) � ARP is a supported protocol in the data link layers, not data link layer protocol Applied Network Research Group Department of Computer Engineering, Kasetsart University 4/13 ARP and RARP ARP and RARP perform dynamic mapping between Logical physical address address logical addresses and ARP physical addresses Address Resolution Protocol ARP maps a logical address to a � physical address i.e., IP address to Ethernet address � RARP maps a physical address to a physical Logical � logical address address address RARP i.e., Ethernet address to IP address � Reverse Address Resolution Protocol Applied Network Research Group Department of Computer Engineering, Kasetsart University

7/13 ARP mechanisms Each node maintains the ARP cache � � it first looks in the cache to find entry first � if the entry is not used for a period (~15 minutes), it is deleted. Receive node can adds an MAC addr entry for source � station in its own cache. ARP traffic load � � hosts quickly add cache entries. � If all hosts on a subnet are booted at the same time? => flurry of ARP requests and reply.
