What's the meaning of ARP in TCP/IP?

Answer Posted / daniel

The "ARP" stands for Address Resolution Protocol. The ARP
standard defines two basic message types: a request and a
response. a request message contains an IP address and
requests the corresponding hardware address; a replay
contains both the IP address, sent in the request, and the
hardware address.
