The Ethernet address is given as six 32 hex bytes separated by colons. The entry will be permanent 33 unless the word _t_e_m_p is given in the command. If the word _p_u_b is 34 given, the entry will be "published"; i.e., this system will act 35 as an ARP server, responding to requests for _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e even though 36 the host address is not its own. The word _t_r_a_i_l indicates that 37 trailer encapsulations may be sent to this host. 38 39 --ff Causes the file _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e to be read and multiple entries to be 40 set in the ARP tables. Entries in the file should be of the form 41 42 _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e _e_t_h_e_r__a_d_d_r [_t_e_m_p] [_p_u_b] [_t_r_a_i_l] 43 44 with argument meanings as given above. 45 46SSEEEE AALLSSOO 47 inet(3), arp(4), ifconfig(8) 48 49HHIISSTTOORRYY 50 The aarrpp command appeared in 4.3BSD. 51 524.3 Berkeley Distribution March 16, 1991 1 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67
