How ARP works?

How ARP works

*
When IP is requested to send a datagram to another IP address , it first looks in the ARP cache to find the corresponding MAC address . If there is no entry it then attempts to look for it using ARP .

*
In order to do this ARP sends an ARP request datagram to all LAN cards using a broadcast address .
