The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a communication protocol for discovering the link layer address, such as a MAC address, associated with a internet layer address, typically an IPv4 address. The protocol, part of the Internet protocol suite , was defined in 1982 by RFC 826 , which is Internet Standard STD 37.
The Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) is an obsolete computer communication protocol used by a client computer to request its Internet Protocol address from a computer network, when all it has available is its link layer or hardware address, such as a MAC address. [1]
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) performs this IP-address-to-hardware-address translation for IPv4. In addition, the reverse correlation is often necessary. For example, unless an address is preconfigured by an administrator, when an IP host is booted or connected to a network it needs to determine its IP address.
Through the use of flags defined in the IMAP4 protocol, clients can keep track of message state: for example, whether or not the message has been read, replied to, or deleted. These flags are stored on the server, so different clients accessing the same mailbox at different times can detect state changes made by other clients.

The group of redundancy allocates itself an IP address which is shared or divided among the members of the group. Within this group, a host is designated as "active/primary". The other members are "standby". The main host is that which "takes" the IP address. It answers any traffic or ARP request brought to the attention of this address. Each ...
A single UDP packet loss can cause a huge impact on the statistics of some flows. That is why some modern implementations of NetFlow use the Stream Control Transmission Protocol to export packets so as to provide some protection against packet loss, and make sure that NetFlow v9 templates are received before any related record is exported. Note ...
An ARP cache [1] is a collection of Address Resolution Protocol entries (mostly dynamic), that are created when an IP address is resolved to a MAC address (so the computer can effectively communicate with the IP address). [2] An ARP cache has the disadvantage of potentially being used by hackers and cyberattackers (an ARP cache poisoning attack).
