Configuring the

Access Point as

an ARP Server

The access point maintains an ARP cache, which is a table of known MAC
addresses and associated IP addresses. When an access point receives an
ARP request on its Ethernet port, it checks its ARP cache to determine if
the destination IP address is known. If the destination IP address is
known and you have enabled ARP Server mode, the access point will act
as an ARP server.
