-.Sh NAME
-.Nm arp
-.Nd Address Resolution Protocol
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Em "pseudo-device ether"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a protocol used to dynamically
-map between Internet host addresses and 10Mb/s Ethernet addresses.
-It is used by all the 10Mb/s Ethernet interface drivers.
-It is not specific to Internet protocols or to 10Mb/s Ethernet,
-but this implementation currently supports only that combination.
-.Pp
-ARP caches Internet-Ethernet address mappings.
-When an interface requests a mapping for an address not in the cache,
-ARP queues the message which requires the mapping and broadcasts
-a message on the associated network requesting the address mapping.
-If a response is provided, the new mapping is cached and any pending
-message is transmitted.
-ARP will queue at most one packet while waiting for a response to a
-mapping request;
-only the most recently ``transmitted'' packet is kept.
-If the target host does not respond after several requests,
-the host is considered to be down for a short period (normally 20 seconds),
-allowing an error to be returned to transmission attempts during this
-interval.
-The error is
-.Li EHOSTDOWN
-for a non-responding destination host, and
-.Li EHOSTUNREACH
-for a non-responding router.
-.Pp
-The ARP cache is stored in the system routing table as
-dynamically-created host routes.
-The route to a directly-attached Ethernet network is installed as a
-.Dq cloning
-route (one with the
-.Li RTF_CLONING
-flag set),
-causing routes to individual hosts on that network to be created on
-demand.
-These routes time out periodically (normally 20 minutes after validated;
-entries are not validated when not in use).
-An entry for a host which is not responding is a
-.Dq reject
-route (one with the
-.Li RTF_REJECT
-flag set).
-.Pp
-ARP entries may be added, deleted or changed with the
-.Xr arp 8
-utility.
-Manually-added entries may be temporary or permanent,
-and may be
-.Dq published ,
-in which case the system will respond to ARP requests for that host
-as if it were the target of the request.
-.Pp
-In the past,
-ARP was used to negotiate the use of a trailer encapsulation.
-This is no longer supported.
-.Pp
-ARP watches passively for hosts impersonating the local host (i.e. a host
-which responds to an ARP mapping request for the local host's address).
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Em "duplicate IP address %x!! sent from ethernet address: %x:%x:%x:%x:%x:%x."
-ARP has discovered another host on the local network which responds to
-mapping requests for its own Internet address with a different Ethernet
-address, generally indicating that two hosts are attempting to use the
-same Internet address.
