When sending out IP packets, ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is used to translate IP addresses
to Ethernet addresses. As a rule, this translation is done dynamically. In rare situations, you may
need to manually enter a static ARP table entry. Maximum configuration allowed: 16 static ARP
entries. Use the
ip arp command to display all dynamic or statically configured ARP entries.
Note: Static ARP entries can be created only for LAN interfaces. They are not supported for WAN
RLAN interfaces.
