Layer 3 IP Networking
Static ARP Table
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a TCP/IP protocol that converts IP addresses into physical addresses. This table allows
network managers to view, define, modify and delete ARP information for specific devices.
Static entries can be defined in the ARP Table. When static entries are defined, a permanent entry is entered and is used to
translate IP addresses to MAC addresses.
To open the Static ARP Table click, Configuration > Layer 3 IP Networking > Static ARP Settings.
