7.4.4.3.3 Configuration | ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)

This page is accessible only to Admin users when the optional High-Speed Packet

Processor card is installed and enabled. See Sect. 7.4.3.1 for information about

using conditional access pages.

Use this page to configure the modem’s P0 | MGMT port ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)

parameters.

ARP is a way of associating a MAC address with an IP address for all devices that are active on a

broadcast domain. The modem can associate these addresses dynamically (by listening to ARP

responses) or statically (by hard-coding the IP/MAC Address association).
