	ARP and RARP Address Translation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		ARP is used to resolve the ethernet address of a NIC from an IP address in order to construct an ethernet packet around an IP data packet.
		Reverse address resolution protocol (RARP) is used for diskless computers to determine their IP address using the network.
		As mentioned earlier, reverse address resolution protocol (RARP) is used for diskless computers to determine their IP address using the network.

		As in ARP, there are no "not found" or "error" packets, since many RARP servers are free to respond to a request.
		The ar$sha, ar$spa, $ar$tha, and ar$tpa fields of the RARP packet are interpreted as follows: When the opcode is 3 ('request reverse'): ar$sha is the hardware address of the sender of the packet.
		When the opcode is 4 ('reply reverse'): ar$sha is the hardware address of the responder (the sender of the reply packet).

	ARP Protocol Overview (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		ARP is transparent to bridging, since bridging will propagate ARP broadcasts like any other Ethernet broadcast, and will transparently bridge the replies.
		After ARPing for the IP address of the router, the packet (targeted at some other Destination Address) is transmitted to the Ethernet address of the router.
		Reverse ARP, document in RFC 903, is a fairly simple bootstrapping protocol that allows a workstation to broadcast using its Ethernet address, and expect a server to reply, telling it its IP address.

	Solaris 9 Network Administrator Exam Cram: ARP and RARP > Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		ARP is used to map a 32-bit IP address to a 48-bit ethernet address.
		The only information that ARP possesses, at this point, is the IP address (say 192.168.0.1), so it basically sends a request to all stations on the local network, asking, "Who has the IP address 192.168.0.1?" The receiving station that has been assigned the relevant IP address responds with its own ethernet address.
		ARP stores its responses in a cache, so that the information is available if it is required again.

	ARP Protocol
		The ARP program looks in the ARP cache and, if it finds the address, provides it so that the packet can be converted to the right packet length and format and sent to the machine.
		If no entry is found for the IP address, ARP broadcasts a request packet in a special format to all the machines on the LAN to see if one machine knows that it has that IP address associated with it.
		There is a Reverse ARP (RARP) for host machines that don't know their IP address.

	ARP - Address Resolution Protocol
		ARP requests are generally sent as broadcast to all nodes, and the node whose IP address matches that in the request replies.
		ARP is limited to physical network systems that support broadcast packets that can be heard by all hosts on the network.
		Reverse ARP, or RARP, is used by a diskless workstation to obtain its logical IP address.

	ARP, Address Resolution Protocol
		ARP is used to translate protocol addresses to hardware interface addresses.
		Otherwise, the ARP Helper Address is the IP address of the router that provided the routing information indicating that the next-hop address was on the same link level network as the associated physical interface.
		In addition, Directed ARP enables routers to advertise (via ICMP Redirects) next-hop addresses that are "foreign" to hosts, since the hosts can use Directed ARP to resolve the "foreign" next-hop addresses.

	ONLamp.com -- Proxy Terminology 101
		A reverse proxy is the reverse of that: it acts on behalf of a network server.
		When a user on the Internet requests data from a web server protected by a reverse proxy, the reverse proxy intercepts the request and ensures that the data contained in the request is acceptable.
		ARP is used whenever a TCP/IP host needs to send a packet.

		Reverse ARP [4], for example, seemed like a good candidate, but the response to a request is the protocol address of the requesting station, not the station receiving the request.
		The Inverse ARP request would be as follows: InARP Request from A (DLCI 50) ar$op 8 (InARP request) ar$sha unknown ar$spa pA ar$tha 0x0C21 (DLCI 50) ar$tpa unknown When Station B receives this packet, it will modify the source hardware address with the Q.922 address from the Frame Relay header.
		Security Considerations This document specifies a functional enhancement to the ARP family of protocols, and is subject to the same security constraints that affect ARP and similar address resolution protocols.

	RARP - Reverse Address Resolution Protocol
		Reverse Address Resolution Protocol, rarp A low-level protocol which, given a hardware (Ethernet MAC) address on the local network, returns the corrsponding IP address.
		Reverse Address Resolution Protocol is a method of mapping the physical Ethernet address to the IP address of the host.
		This is the reverse of the ARP, that is, it maps an Ethernet addresses to its corresponding IP address.

		Motivation The motivation for the development of Inverse ARP is a result of the desire to make dynamic address resolution within Frame Relay both possible and efficient.
		Reverse ARP [4], for example, seemed like a good candidate, but the response to a request is the protocol address of the requesting station not the station receiving the request as we wanted.
		Unlike other ARP requests, however, the receiving station may assume that any InARP request it receives is destined for it.

		ARP achieves this by issuing a low-level broadcast onto the network, requesting that the system that is using the specified IP address respond with its hardware address.
		ARP cache timeout values that are too high will cause problems whenever a host is assigned a different IP address, since the other hosts who have an older entry in their caches will still try to send data to the old (and invalid) hardware address.
		Reverse ARP is used to allow a diskless workstation to request it’s own IP address, simply by providing its hardware address in an ARP request broadcast.

	ARP
		ARP caching is the method of storing network addresses and the associated data-link addresses in memory for a period of time as the addresses are learned.

	Anatomy of an ARP Poisoning Attack: Security Basics \| WatchGuard Technologies, Inc.
		ARP provides no way to verify that the responding device is really who it says it is. In fact, many operating systems implement ARP so trustingly that devices that have not made an ARP request still accept ARP replies from other devices.
		By flooding a switch's ARP table with a ton of spoofed ARP replies, a hacker can overload many vendor's switches and then packet sniff your network while the switch is in "hub" mode.
		Since ARP Cache Poisoning results from a lack of security in a protocol that is required for TCP/IP networking to function, you can't fix it.

	Reverse Address Resolution Protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) is a network layer protocol used to resolve an IP address from a given hardware address (such as an Ethernet address).
		Another limitation of RARP compared to BOOTP or DHCP is that it is a non-IP protocol.
		This means that like ARP it can't be handled by the TCP/IP stack on the client, but is instead implemented separately.

	ARP: Address Resolution Protocol and InARP (Inverse ARP)
		Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) performs mapping of an IP address to a physical machine address (MAC address for Ethernet) that is recognized in the local network.
		A table, usually called the ARP cache, is used to maintain a correlation between each MAC address and its corresponding IP address.
		ARP provides the rules for making this correlation and providing address conversion in both directions.

	IP, ARP & MAC Addressing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network.
		The ARP program looks in the ARP cache and, if if finds the address, provides it so that the packet can be converted to the right packet length and format and sent to the machine.
		Since protocol details differ for each type of local area network, there are separate ARP Requests for Comments (RFCs) for Ethernet, ATM, FDDI, HIPPI, and other protocols.

		You may well know what ARP does from your networking studies or work on a LAN, but to effectively troubleshoot ARP issues on a WAN (and pass the 640-801, 640-811, and 640-821 exams!), you need to take network devices into account that may be separating the workstations in question.
		The ARP Reply will be unicast to the device requesting it, as with the previous example.
		Proxy ARP runs by default on a Cisco 2500 router, but it can be turned off at the interface level with the no ip proxy-arp command.
