6.2.5 Inventory Device Details - ARP
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP
address) to a physical machine address, also known as a Media Access Control or MAC address, on
the local area network. Use this screen to view current IP-to-MAC address mapping(s) on the
device.

DESCRIPTION
Click this to update the information in the table below.
This field displays the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is always based on
network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a subnet mask of
255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical to the
host ID.
This field displays the index number of the route. Click a number to edit the static route entry.
This field displays the primary routing metric which indicates the cost of transmission for
routing purposes. IP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, 1 displays if the final
destination is a direct-connected network or device. -1 displays if this metric is not used.
These fields display the alternative routing metrics for the route. -1 displays if this metric is not
used.
This field displays the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of the
device, that will forward the packets to the destination.
This field displays the type of route the device supports. See ipRouteType in RFC1213 for more
information.
This field displays local if the route is added to the table manually. Otherwise, the field displays
a particular routing protocol via which this route was learned.
This field displays the remaining time (in seconds) before the route is removed from this table
(for dynamic routes). 0 means the route does not age out (for static routes).
This field displays the subnet mask for this destination.
This field displays the alternative routing metric for the route. -1 displays if this metric is not
used.
This field displays additional information for the routing protocol shown in the Proto field
above. 0.0 means no additional information.
