Operation Manual - Network Protocol Quidway S6500 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 ARP Configuration Chapter 2 ARP Configuration 2.1 Introduction to ARP I. Necessity of ARP An IP address cannot be directly used for communication between network devices because network devices can only identify MAC addresses. An IP address is only an address of a host in the network layer.
Page 99
Operation Manual - Network Protocol Quidway S6500 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 ARP Configuration Normally, dynamic ARP executes and automatically searches for the resolution from the IP address to the Ethernet MAC address without the administrator. 2.2 Configure ARP The ARP mapping table can be maintained dynamically or manually. Usually, the manually configured mapping from the IP addresses to the MAC addresses is known as static ARP.
