An Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol: Or Converting Network Protocol Addresses to 48.bit Ethernet Address for Transmission on Ethernet Hardware

Abstract
The implementation of protocol P on a sending host S decides,through protocol P's routing mechanism, that it wants to transmitto a target host T located some place on a connected piece of10Mbit Ethernet cable. To actually transmit the Ethernet packeta 48.bit Ethernet address must be generated. The addresses ofhosts within protocol P are not always compatible with thecorresponding Ethernet address (being different lengths orvalues). Presented here is a protocol that allows dynamicdistribution of the information needed to build tables totranslate an address A in protocol P's address space into a48.bit Ethernet address.
