Address resolution protocol optimization

This paper proposes an improved Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) for Ethernet-based networks. In the proposed alternative method, the ARP request packets are not broadcasted but instead unicasted to an ARP server which will have all the <ip, MAC> mappings of all the hosts connected to the net...
