arp

Description:

The arp command provides access to the ARP (Address Resolution
Protocol) cache, enabling you to view cache data, delete entries, or add
a static route. Super-user access is required to delete an entry or add a
static route.

Each ARP cache entry lists: the network interface that the device is
connected to, the device’s network address or IP address, the device’s
physical address or MAC address, and the media type of connection to
the device. Media types are displayed as numbers, which stand for the
following states:

1 - Other
2 - Invalid entry (cannot ping device, timed out, etc.)
3 - Dynamic route entry
4 - Static route entry (not subject to change)
